PZ Myers on cancer research progress

As promised awhile back, my blogging frequency has dropped off a bit as I tend to some more time-consuming details in my meatspace existence.

I've also missed some fabulous posts around the blogosphere. I wanted to direct Terra Sig readers to a moving yet data-driven essay by Professor PZ Myers at the University of Minnesota at Morris, better known as the blogger who writes Pharyngula. PZ is a terrific writer but this post is particularly excellent.

I'll be back shortly with something meaningful.
