Back at last from computer crash:

No, I haven't given up blogging. You never know what you will miss on your computer until it conks out and takes both printers with it, and leaves you with a pile of undone work and the need to recover al kinds of things. For now, go here for my comment on a recent development in the ID controversy: A guy's professional association is hassling him about signing some anti-Darwin statement.

I'll be back.
P.S.: If I haven't posted your (reasonable) comment, one reason is that it either wasn't saved or it was saved but in a format that did not allow me to know if I had already seen it or not. - d.

Blog policy note:Comments are permitted on this blog, but they are moderated. Fully anonymous posts and URLs posted without comment are rarely accepted. To Mr. Anonymous: I'm not psychic, so if you won't tell me who you are, I can't guess and don't care. To Mr. Nude World (URL): If you can't be bothered telling site visitors why they should go on to your fave site next, why should I post your comment? They're all busy people, like you. To Mr. Rudesby International and Mr. Pottymouth: I also have a tendency to delete comments that are merely offensive. Go be offensive to someone who can smack you a good one upside the head. That may provide you with a needed incentive to stop and think about what you are trying to accomplish. To Mr. Righteous but Wrong: I don't publish comments that contain known or probable factual errors. There's already enough widely repeated misinformation out there, and if you don't have the time to do your homework, I don't either. To those who write to announce that at death I will either 1) disintegrate into nothingness or 2) go to Hell by a fast post, please pester someone else. I am a Catholic in communion with the Church and haven't the time for either village atheism or aimless Jesus-hollering.
