Comments on: The Bloggies! http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2006/01/05/the-bloggies/ I am an astronomer, writer, and skeptic. I likes reality the way it is, and I aims to keep it that way. My real name is Phil Plait, and I run the Bad Astronomy blog.

Best American Weblog (though I take issue with the title since "American" could mean anything from Canada, Mexico, Panama, Chilie, Brazil or even the United States. After all, how would all of Europe feel if the French insisted they were the only "Europeans"? ...sigh... 2. Best Topical Weblog 3. Best-Kept-Secret Weblog and 4. Weblog of the Year Oooo! What if you won in multiple categories? Okay, Phil, I have you in:

Astronomy classes for nonscientists were my favorite college classes and I took them whenever I could squeeze in the electives. That was a long time ago, but you've really reignited my love for astronomy. That's certainly worth my vote. Thanks for this blog.
