Tangled Bank XXV
The Tangled Bank XXV, hosted this time at Respectful Insolence (a.k.a. "Orac Knows"), is an example of a phenomenon, until very recently unknown to me, known in the blogoon as a "Blog Carnival". It's a pretty cool idea, actually, so it's nice that someone thought of it.
The Tangled Bank, which originated with PZ Myers of Pharyngula, deals with "articles in the field of science and medicine, very broadly defined".
Well, sometimes I deal with science, and I like that "very broadly defined" bit. Sometimes I do manage to deal with real scientific thoughts and serious ideas — occasionally, at least.
So the other night when I was siezed with an undeniable fever to write some notes on my notions concerning "Negative Selection" about how Evolutionary Biologists had gotten it all wrong (c'mon, I know better than to try the old "here's how Einstein boo-booed" trick), I also decided to "throw cochon to the wind" (as we sometimes say at home — kind of like "when pigs fly" which is, incidentally, one of our favorite musical revues) and submit my late-night delusional writing for this week's Tangled Bank.
Well, Orac kindly included a reference as part of his witty and effervescent presentation of Tangled Bank XXV. Take a look; you'll enjoy it.
