Skepchick Quickies 2.7

- There will be blood – Skeptically Speaking’s Desiree Schell talks with Dr. Kate Clancy and PZ Myers about the evolution and function of menstruation.
- Jezebel promotes homeopathy, PZ responds – “Feminism is best served by embracing reality, by thinking critically, and advancing rational arguments. This sloppy Newage shit-slurry of ingenuous gullibility is pure poison to the cause.” New favorite PZ quote? I think so.
- From inside lions and leviathans, anatomist builds a following – From Sol.
- Google ocean “conveniently” removes Atlantis maps – “The grid was merely caused by overlapping datasets, according to NOAA.” When will they let the truth out?
Thanks, Google, for having shown my secret, underwater lair. You’ll be hearing from my lawyers!
See, this is exactly why I have my lair in a volcano.
Who’s your realtor?
Pfff… Atlantis, yeah right. It’s obviously R’lyeh!
Ph’nglui mglw’nafh Cthulhu R’ lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagn!

Scribe999 We can’t be certain at the moment, but I have a feeling that if it goes to the supreme court, the law will not be reinstated, and that’s assuming the court refuses to hear it.
Marilove,
I’ve heard about that, and I’m glad it happened.
PZ Meyers is my hero.

You post a lot of interesting articles here.
Thanks! Jen and I get a lot of interesting links sent to us. :)
‘Skeptically Speaking’s Desiree Schell talks with Dr. Kate Clancy and PZ Myers about the evolution and function of menstruation.’ I am not in touch with these issues. So this was a great catch up. Double bonus as it is a podcast that can be listened too!
