It's been a couple of weeks since we've heard from either Dan Carroll or Mammuthus, two of my favorite posters. (If I stop posting suddenly, call the cops on Moose.) I can't watch that Eliza Dushku show without thinking of trouserless Dan perched in front of the TV with a jar of lube. And considering the ratings, obviously I won't be able to watch it much longer. Mammuthus is a great help when I want to learn more about a certain subject, with his gentle suggestions to 'get a fucking clue' and 'use that arse you call a brain,' followed by a lengthy list of abstracts.
And why hasn't our new batch of hyper-fundies been subjected to the Rrhain treatment? I miss the way he has these critters skipping in circles like a philosophical border collie. Rei hasn't been heard from in a while, and I used to wonder how she could fire off so many detailed, substantial posts in so little time.
I still wonder what happened to Parasomnium. A tea-drinker with a Thunderbirds avatar and a Douglas Adams tag-line, he nevertheless claimed he wasn't British. However, he said he read and enjoyed
Darwin's Dangerous Idea, one of the best books I ever read.
