Million Comment Party

So, due to circumstances beyond his control, Ed over at Dispatches won't be able to plan our Michigan party, so we're going to do it in the Detroit metro area on Saturday, Sept. 20th. I don't have the place yet, but I'm getting the idea that there are a few definite maybes. Let me know (again if necessary).

There are many things I am thankful for about my job. One of them is being able to use the bathroom whenever (and as often) as I need. I thought about this situation when I’ve heard poultry workers mention the restrictions they face.
Today is Car-Free Day, and how easy it is for us to get along without a personal vehicle depends largely on where we live.
The Knoxville Metro Pulse Online has a nice guest opinion piece by Rikki Hall that uses Zeno's paradox as an analogy for creationists and evidence.

The omission of a investigation is the acceptance of the endangerment of the public safety.

Given my basic laziness business, I'm thinking about naming a not-too-busy pub in a decent neighborhood and buying the first few rounds for whomever shows.

On the one hand, I would love to be close enough to actually check it out. OTOH, it was depressing enough to go through Detroit the last time I was there (almost four years ago, when I left MI for the PacNW).

My brother is quite the scalawag. In the face of such unexpected, crushing responsibility, I would do the pub thing too.

Hi Pal,

My email to you at Yahoo was bounced back.

There is a pre-med asking about which program (MD vs DO) to enter. http://forums.randi.org/showthread.php?t=123113 Several MDs have left thoughtful answers; but you may have something further to offer.

As an outsider, I find the opinions interesting, too.

Hmmm..i'll check my email settings and check out the thread when i have a minute

Thanks. I may have mis-typed your email address. When it failed, it seemed reasonable that you could have abandoned it after switching blogs.
