I suppose this is what they call a blog. Except that blogs
are supposed to be updated more often than this is.

About a year ago I quoted
an extremely silly philosophical argument about consciousness. It's
somewhat related to a more famous but almost equally silly argument
in the same field, the one about
zombies.
("Quaaaaalia!")
Since it's that time of year again ...
Zombies: The Movie.
GENERAL FRED: They behave ... exactly like we do ... except that they're not conscious.
(Silence grips the table.)
COLONEL TODD: Dear God.
[Update, 2008-05-01: This didn't actually appear until
several days after it was written, because Easyspace's FTP server was
b0rked.]

Yet more NCS notes,
for our next concert.
Someone posted a stupid list of alleged pagan parallels
to the Jesus story (desired conclusion: the Christians
made it all up, basing their stories on earlier myths)
in uk.religion.christian,
where I still hang out for sentimental reasons. I did a little
light debunking.
(It probably has mistakes; corrections welcome.)
