Once more, it's rapidly approaching that time again. The 99th Meeting of the Skeptics' Circle will be landing at Ferret's Cage in less than three days. That means there's still time to get your entries to the Ferret King in time to be included in the blog carnival. The cool thing is that Ferret King is only 15 and thus represents the new generation of skepticism. So, if you have a blog and regularly write about skepticism, reason, and/or critically thinking, then help nurture the next generation by submitting your best work to the Skeptics' Circle. Instructions are here, and the guidelines are here.

Yes, people, please send me stuff! I don't want to have to board my pirate ship and raid skeptical sites for posts; running low on them right now.
The "new generation of skepticism"? Uh-oh, does this mean I have to start practising waving my avatar's cane and yelling at those damn kids to get off my virtual lawn?
Yes, yes it does. We young skeptics, even though I don't know of any others, are relegating you all to old people status.
Then get off my blog, you damned kid!

What with Teen Skepchick, I'm really starting to feel the weight of my years here! Grumble, grumble. Back when I was your age, we had to walk a kilometer in the snow both ways just to buy a paperback Carl Sagan book.
Join the club. It sucks getting old, but it's better than the alternative.
The circle is up now.
