Mary Warnock is taking the sensible view with regards to the predictable, annual brouhaha over A-level results. I didn't get great A-level results (for a variety of reasons). But I'm currently on track to get either a very high upper second or first class degree. 2006-08-20T19:05:18Z

Ed Brayton has a good response to D. James Kennedy's awful-sounding new book. The funny thing is that the things Hitler said, if you remove the attribution to Hitler and shouted them out at - say - the Republican party's annual convention or a Moral Majority revival, they wouldn't sound out of place. History teaches lessons - a lesson that fundies fail time and time again. 2006-08-20T18:57:35Z

Guess what I just found? The most crazy, cracked-out preacher ever. That is definitely going in my "Why America Is Fucked Up" collection. 2006-08-20T09:32:01Z

I listened last night to this interview with Dave. 2006-08-20T08:35:05Z

Currently in: Kent, England

Usually in: East Sussex, England

I am a vegetarian, an atheist, like to code in Ruby and Scala (and Java, but let’s not talk about that), and noodle about with microformats and the Semantic Web.

I have an MA in philosophy from Heythrop College, University of London. My philosophical interests are in analytic metaphysics, ontology, modality, the work of Armstrong, Lewis, Kripke, Russell and Plato. I have a strange, unfulfilled interest in Gadamer’s hermeneutics. I’ve been influenced by Gadamer, by Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Rawls and Nozick.

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. I occasionally produce audio recordings for The Pod Delusion.
