Fast approaching: The Skeptics’ Circle

Time’s flying by once again.

You know, the longer I serve as the organizer of this great endeavor that I did not start, namely The Skeptics’ Circle, the more it amazes me just how good it routinely is. It also amazes me just how fast time flies between editions. This time around is no exception. Already, the next edition is due in a mere four days, on May 8, 2008. This time around, the host will be The Skepbitch. Besides having an utterly awesome name for her blog, the Skepbitch is–well–a skeptic. In fact, so dedicated is she that she was willing to subject herself to a lecture by Sylvia Browne in the cause of skepticism. (Talk about taking one for the team!)

So, please, help the Skepbitch out in her endeavor of wanting to bring you the most awesome Skeptics’ Circle yet seen. Send her your best skeptical blogging by May 7. Do it now. You know you want to. Then join us back at The Skepbitch on May 8 for a roundup of the best skeptical blogging out there.

By Orac

Orac is the nom de blog of a humble surgeon/scientist who has an ego just big enough to delude himself that someone, somewhere might actually give a rodent's posterior about his copious verbal meanderings, but just barely small enough to admit to himself that few probably will. That surgeon is otherwise known as David Gorski.

That this particular surgeon has chosen his nom de blog based on a rather cranky and arrogant computer shaped like a clear box of blinking lights that he originally encountered when he became a fan of a 35 year old British SF television show whose special effects were renowned for their BBC/Doctor Who-style low budget look, but whose stories nonetheless resulted in some of the best, most innovative science fiction ever televised, should tell you nearly all that you need to know about Orac. (That, and the length of the preceding sentence.)

DISCLAIMER:: The various written meanderings here are the opinions of Orac and Orac alone, written on his own time. They should never be construed as representing the opinions of any other person or entity, especially Orac's cancer center, department of surgery, medical school, or university. Also note that Orac is nonpartisan; he is more than willing to criticize the statements of anyone, regardless of of political leanings, if that anyone advocates pseudoscience or quackery. Finally, medical commentary is not to be construed in any way as medical advice.
