Last week, I had an awesome bike ride around the Seawall in Vancouver with Grimzentide. This actually happened at the end of September, but since I was on vacation who’s keeping rack of dates?

Vancouver is an extremely liveable city, and doing things like this is what makes me say that. And that’s even though Grimo made a point to take me through bum-town, just to show me the other side of the tracks… 

Note: If you’re in Germany or some other parts of Europe and you can’t see the vid, then here’s a link that may work for you.

*Bravo, America. Bravo

You can get it through Amazon or Barnes and Noble in the USA.

“[The author] said that he has already received angry emails from creationists demanding to know why his book doesn’t give “equal time” to their point of view. He explains that his book is about science, not religion. Furthermore, the Christian creation story is only one of many from various cultures around the world.”

The other irony being that the poeple who would write those emails and demonstrate against this book would be the very ones who need to read it - that is, people with less than an 8 year old’s understanding of science.
