Got this lovely email tonight:

I've barely scratched the surface of your site content.
Just read your

Something I've wondered about but had not found a good treatment of.

Clear, concise, comprehensive.  It is a conceptual thing of beauty.
And respectful.  It's something I could show a skeptic without them feeling I'm poking a thumb in their eye.

Tho' I must admit I especially enjoyed your (Deltoid's) kicker:
"Chickens do not lay eggs, because they have been observed to hatch from them".

Hmm, just had another look at the CO2 lag rebuttal - gotta love those little Earth globes :-)

Is that really the earth?  Where's the big pointy continent that's usually on the front side? 

Just kidding!

For my part I recognized the Earth, but am puzzled by the giant egg it circles...

Nope, it's usually Europe/Africa-centric globe.
