YouTube have just banned videos over 10 minutes. That's such a dumb idea. All the videos that I actually find interesting or useful on YouTube have been over 10 minutes, including Ken Miller's talk. All the sub-10-minutes stuff is pointless, amusing shit. That's fine, but it's the long stuff that's useful. 2006-03-31T13:37:40ZUntitled entry permalink

MediaWatchWatch is reporting that Stephen Green is throwing a big old wobbly one over "disgusting and immoral pictures". No, not the Motoons. Two lesbians. 2006-03-31T13:22:10ZUntitled entry permalink

Paul Camp has some funny, sceptical reasons why not to pick your ears or use those damn Hopi ear candles. They're bullshit. If you've got a cerumen buildup, consult your doctor. He'll check your ears to see whether it's infectious or not. That takes about five minutes. If it's just an ordinary bildup, you can simply use some oil to break down the cerumen, then go back and a nurse will pump it out. Total time at the doctors is about ten minutes. When you come out, it feels great, and you have to turn everything down. 2006-03-31T13:16:17ZUntitled entry permalink

Good thing I'm using OS X, Linux, Windows XP, PS2, PSOne and Dreamcast. All these platform 'eadaches seem less important. 2006-03-31T08:57:17ZUntitled entry permalink

Life at the Pensacola Christian College: "these kids are going off to this school that is run like a concentration camp, suffering for four years, and then 'graduating' with a degree that is almost completely worthless, and with credits that won't transfer to any other university". Damn right, PZ. 2006-03-31T08:51:11ZUntitled entry permalink

I phoned in to Free Talk Live last night. Grab the MP3. I'm bemoaning the ID card bill. 2006-03-31T08:39:03ZUntitled entry permalink

Someone found my site by searching for "Ramtha sex". That's a scary thought. 2006-03-31T08:36:46ZUntitled entry permalink

I am a , an , like to code in and noodle about with and the . I also have a BA in philosophy from London, and am studying for an MA. My philosophical interests are in Victorian-era German philosophy, Kierkegaard, Robert Nozick, hermeneutics and current approaches to the demarcation problem in the philosophy of science. Musically, I like jazz fusion, soul and P-Funk. My musical nirvana would be a mixture of Beethoven, Miles Davis and George Clinton topped with a side-serving of Erykah, Jill and Angie.

I also write for the Citizendium, an online encyclopedia project. If you know about stuff, you should join in.
