A quick thank you ...

... to everyone who put up with the recent ghastly posts.

You will be happy to know that no one in this house has vomited in over 24 hours and that we have much soup. Thanks to the deli. Blessed deli!

My boss said that she would be thrilled to lose 10 pounds in two days, I assured her she would not be. She remained unconvinced, I blame the media.

Oh, and just as an aside, Lord Monckton is a complete cock.

Normal service will resume shortly.

He's a leading anti-climate change compaigner, who I normally agree to just think is a numpty with all the scientific comprehension of an aardvark and a willingness to confuse empiricism with ideology normally only seen in Creationists. However, today video emerged of him calling Professor Ross Garnaut (highly respected Australian economist) a fascist and using a Powerpoint slide of a swastika to illustrate his point, simply because Garnaut believes the overwhelming consensus of the scientific community.

Aside from the outrageous overstepping of the boundaries of public debate, he uses Powerpoint. The man is beyond the pale.

And thank you!

So his biggest flaw is the use of Powerpoint? ;)

I had to go look him up on Wikipedia [G]. Numpty indeed. I like his idea on the way to stop AIDS (NOT).

I'd forgotten all about that! Talk about your epidemiology fail -- yeah, sure a global virus comes from nowhere and you can totally put it back in its box by dealing with infections in one or two countries ... He really is a total moron when it comes to all the sciences!
