   In two minutes on a Texas highway, I have already spotted two drivers talking on cell phones (one-hand driving, holding phone to ear) and one driver texting. #assholes #murderers

   I will have to check this out at our local Targets; I really hope it is not true. This is dangerous, bordering on criminal. Homeopathy is when water and sugar are labeled as medicine, marked up vastly in price, and sold as if conferring a medical benefit.  "Does Target sell the most irresponsible homeopathic remedy ever?" http://sciencebasedpharmacy.wordpress.co…

    Not a bad first day back at SMU after winter break. I processed the 100 real emails of any note down to an Org-mode Emacs list of TODOs, checked a couple of small items off the list, and I know what I need to do over this remaining week to be ready for class starting on Friday. I don't feel so overwhelmed by the prospect of work when I get the email pile smaller and turn it into action items.

    Ugh. I feel for my friends in Australia and Argentina - temperatures in Australia during their most recent heat wave, which coincided with the descent of the north polar vortex onto North America, got as high at 118F. In fact, it seems only North America has been the recipient of very cold winter temperatures this season, and the summers down south are hot. http…

    Very good "On The Media" episode this week, in part covering: (1) the myth of "Blue Monday," (2) the caution required when hearing compelling (but false) Obamacare stories, (3) the modern history of the American Creationism movement, including the terrifying "Wedge Document," (4) the story behind that creepy robo-call system that denies it's a robot. http://www.onthemedia.org/story/on-the-media-2014-01-10/

    Flu is slapping North Texas around. I got my flu shot a few months ago, and you should get yours, too. Remember: it takes about 2 weeks for the flu shot to take effect, so the longer you wait the more you risk infection and spreading infection to others. Most insurance companies cover the flu shot (don't let pharmacies tell you otherwise), and keep in mind that …
