A couple of new links of note...

First up is Pat Cahalan, who I came across on this thread at Adventures in Ethics and Science. Pat was far more patient with the nut providing the AR extremist side of the "dialogue" happening over there. My only real complaint about Pat's Daily Grind, is that it isn't particularly "daily." But he more than makes up for this with posted implications of mad scientist proclivities - I am holding out to see if he is down for the invasion of Canuckistan.

Next up; I have been remiss in not adding Rational Rant to the blogroll. SBH mostly writes about rationality and early literature - mostly Christian. He also occasionally busts out with some posts about Portland, OR, my adopted hometown from which I am currently in exile. Loving me some rational thinking and Portland, I also love me some SBH...

I suppose I should also admit with a great deal of horror and shame, that I totally failed to blogroll that damned Canuskistanian, Jason Thibeault, who admits to being a lousy Canuckistanian. In spite of being a Canuckistanian (maybe because he is rather lousy at it), I have grown quite fond of him and his soon to be partner in marriage, Jodi.

A new addition to the seed sciborg collective, is David Sloan Wilson's Evolution for Everyone. I think I am going to have some fun with this one...

Finally I get to the most exciting addition to my blogroll - Addiction Inbox. I actually came across Dirk's blog several months ago while doing some research on addiction - then I promptly forgot all about it. My lovely partner Juniper emailed me the other night to mention it to me after seeing it at DM's blog.

It was supposed to be, when I started it. Unfortunately I found that too often I was dragged into commentary thread on other blogs, and that impeded my own top posting, as 'twere.

Sure, I could just top post on my own blog and cross-link, but sometimes the original comment doesn't warrant its own blog post, and it's sort of impolite (IMO) to do lots of cross linking if what you're really writing is commentary; you should leave that on the original blog for the interested thread readers.

On some occasions (like Dr. F-R's AR thread) I don't realize how far down the rabbit hole goes until I've already fallen down it.

You're right, though, I really do need to post more...

Oh, I neglected to mention that Heard Island has already been selected as my Zombie Apocalypse destination :)
