The 85th Meeting of the Skeptics' Circle: Looking under rocks

Better a little late than never, I'm happy to say that the 85th Meeting of the Skeptics' Circle has arrived at Andrea's Buzzing About:. What is it about Andrea anyway? And what is this obsession about looking under rocks? What will be found under all those rocks? There's only one way to find out!

Next up to host is The Skepbitch. Now if there's a name for a blog that is better for a host of the Skeptics' Circle, I can't think of it right now. In a mere two weeks, the Circle will once again meet, this time on Thursday, May 8.

Well, hopefully better late than never. Go. Read. Learn. Then don't forget that less than two weeks hence, on…
Once more, time has flown by. Worse, it's flown by fast enough that Ben Stein's bit of argumentum ad Nazium propaganda has finally slimed its way into theaters. Now, more than ever, we need a hefty dose of real skepticism (as opposed to the pseudoskepticism and denialism that masquerade as science…
I have to hand it to Mike, the host of this week's Meeting of the Skeptics' Circle. He's decided to do something that I never would have thought possible: He's gotten Ben Stein to introduce the entries to this week's festival of skeptical thinking--which is why you're all "expelled"! (I wonder what…
