This is good stuff. It seems that over the last couple of years a new rationalist movement has sprung up, and networks of rational-minded blogs such as this one are at the heart of it. I only wish “blog” weren’t such a buzz word, misused by “web 2.0″ gurus, because it makes what I just wrote appear to be meaningless wankery…

If I may make a prediction, it’s that we are in for a few dark years, irrationality’s last hurrah, before the pendulum swings rationality’s way for a generation or two.
