I make atheists come out of the closet faster than Ted Haggard... I'm the black Carl Sagan.&lt;/q&gt; Brilliant. But the best song has to be &lt;em&gt;A Rational Response&lt;/em&gt; where Greydon lays down evidence for evolution and smacks down Pascal's wager.

From their website, two things stand out - Quiet Carriage (now standard on most InterCity services) and WiFi. Woohoo. I'm sold. If I ever need to creep up into the scarier parts of the country (Newcastle, Leeds, York, Edinburgh and Glasgow - I consider anywhere past about Luton to be 'north', see), I now know who I will travel with. Who's next? My life would be a lot easier if South-Eastern had wifi on their commuter services. WiFi would be a great way to make me travel on the train more. Hint hint. It could end up like the Google Bus, only with crappier weather outside than in the Bay Area." created="Fri, 28 Dec 2007 03:05:24 GMT"/>

If you haven't, setup &lt;a href=&quot;http://openid.net&quot;&gt;OpenID&lt;/a&gt; and let people login with that instead. And please start using encryption, everybody. Security should be our concern - nobody else is going to protect us - not Google, not Facebook, not our damn clueless government. Get yourself a GPG key, meet me in real life and I'll sign the damn thing. Then we can have properly secure communication at 4,096 bit and Mr Cracker won't be able to read a single bit of the damn thing. Security paranoid? You bet your arse I'm security paranoid &lt;em&gt;now&lt;/em&gt;." created="Fri, 28 Dec 2007 22:41:12 GMT"/></outline></body>
