Skeptic Summary #4

By The Staff
Posted on: 9/3/2004

Spooky stuff, SETI, email, circles and squares, the West Memphis Three, Monty Python and more!


Week ending September 3, 2004 (Vol 1, #4)

Welcome to the Skeptic Summary, a quick week-in-review guide to the Skeptic Friends Network and the rest of the skeptical world.

Forum Highlights:
Freaky-Deaky, baby - Boo!

SETI - SETI@Home news!

SFN Email Upgrade! - If you’ve got a skepticfriends.org email address, or you’d like one, read this thread.

Editor’s Choice: Thought I’d Share… - Ever been baffled by simple shapes? You’re not alone.
Kil’s Evil Pick:
Free the West Memphis Three - Although there was no physical evidence, murder weapon, motive, or connection to the victims, the prosecution pathetically resorted to presenting black hair and clothing, heavy metal t-shirts, and Stephen King novels as proof that the boys were sacrificed in a satanic cult ritual. Unfathomably, Echols was sentenced to death, Baldwin received life without parole, and Misskelley got life plus 40.
New Articles:
Rationally Speaking, N. 53, September 2004: Monty Python’s Guide to Philosophy - Are secular humanists a bunch of dreary negative Nellies? Monty Python and Massimo say ‘no’.
