Orac continues to charge his Tarial cell. Fear not, he will soon return. Not much of 2020 shall pass without his doing what he does best here.

I’d like to take this opportunity to wish Respectful Insolence readers Happy Holidays! I’m taking a few days off from blogging, but will be back Friday or Monday, depending on my mood.
There will be no new material today and probably not Monday either. I’m in New York attending the Northeast Conference on Science and Skepticism (NECSS). I’ll be giving a talk this afternoon, “Cancer Quackery and Fake News: Targeting the Most Vulnerable.” I’ll be back Tuesday or Wednesday.
Real life intrudes on Orac’s blogging. He is not pleased. Such is life.
Fear not, intrepid readers. Orac will return in a week, as he describes here in an update. He has not disappeared forever, although two and a half weeks is a long time.
