Tangled Bank declares War on Christmas

The Tangled Bank

A Tangled Bank is a good spot from which to launch an ambush—so Salto Sobrius is on the attack!

The very freshest, sweetest, neatest Tangled Bank is now online. It's got links! To science! P.S. A few people are worried that the Panda's Thumb seems to be down right now. They're having some server problems, it's nothing to be too concerned about (it is not an external attack), and they're in…
If you've had trouble accessing the site in the last couple of days, sorry about that. Scienceblogs.com has been under a cross-site script attack for a while, and we only recently figured out what was going on. Efforts are underway to deal with the problem. We're re-targeting the orbital mind…

The latest Tangled Bank has been posted at a fellow skeptic's blog, Salto Sobrius, who, it just so happens, is also scheduled to host the Skeptics' Circle in September.

I have posted around on this upcoming translation of a book by a French atheist, Michel Onfray, and I am have to see that it has been picked up by onegoodmove.

The translated title is "Atheist Manifesto".

Hmmm ....

I recognise the background photo for that - it's in my garden, last spring - a true "Tangled Bank".

Bumblebees, ladybirds, lots of other beetles, frogs and newts in the pond, and all the plants flowering, and getting ready to pump out information (seeds) ......
