A sea biscuit's life.

Posted 11-17-2008 at 01:47 PM by Bullet Magnet

Clypeaster subdepressus, more commonly known as the sea biscuit or sand dollar, is a common coastal Echinoid, or sea urchin. Echinoderms like these are deuterostomes like us, meaning we are more closely related to them than the seemingly more similar arthropods, annelid worms and molluscs, who at least have a complete nervous system and unfailingly both a mouth and and anus.

This charming video portrays the beautiful development cycle of a sea biscuit from fertilisation to final metamorphosis....

Ever see "The Ten Commandments"?

Posted 11-01-2008 at 09:27 AM by Bullet Magnet

I only ask because it seems that this sort of people are more likely to have seen a movie than have read a book, even if that book is the center of their religion, infallible word of the Lord etcetera etcetera. It would seem rather essential to people of applicable faiths, don't you think?

Apparently, not so. But we all know how even the nuances of their own religion are not important to fundamentals who not only already know how the world works without any scientific study, but how...

Mosasaur

This is the most awesome fossil ever.

I challenge you to find better, bearing in mind that you will be judged against my own personal preferences and therefore have most likely already lost.

Mosasaurs were squamates, even lepidosaurs, like snakes and lizards, making them, of all the Mesozoic vertebrates, most justified in having the suffix "-saur" in their genera.

I am getting FUCKING pissed off with this world and our apathy now. I really am.

The Pale Blue Dot

Posted 10-20-2008 at 06:12 PM by Bullet Magnet

As Voyager 1 left our planetary neighbourhood for the fringes of the solar system on February 14, 1990, engineers turned it around, at Carl Sagan's suggestion, for one last look at its home planet. Voyager 1 was about 6.4 billion kilometers (4 billion miles) away, and approximately 32 degrees above the ecliptic plane, when it captured this portrait of our world. Caught in the center of scattered light rays (a result of taking the picture so close to the Sun), Earth appears as a tiny point of light,...

A mind so wrecked.

Posted 10-16-2008 at 07:12 AM by Bullet Magnet

I wish it was as simple as just simply laying out the facts and show people how obvious they are and how easy to understand they are. That's the policy that I have adopted throughout my entire career, through nine, ten books. It works for some people but I am afraid that it is becoming increasingly clear that it does not work for people whose childhood indoctrination (imprinting, one might almost call it) is sufficiently strong.

The most dramatic illustration of this I know is a man...
