Comments on: Swiftly acknowledged http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2007/01/05/swiftly-acknowledged/ 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.

Somehow I don't think he took physics at Yale. That <i>is</i> the teenage-idol picture, but the one I was thinking of was specifically surrounded by a yellow circular border (I have it saved somewhere 'cuz it's kind of funny). Alas, I can't locate it on the web.

That is the teenage-idol picture, but the one I was thinking of was specifically surrounded by a yellow circular border (I have it saved somewhere ‘cuz it’s kind of funny). Alas, I can’t locate it on the web.

But, what’s this? Is Phil really a Teletubby with that thing coming out of his head? :-)

Oh, you, right? I think it’s very odd that I can’t get into randi.org at work - I get the dreaded ACCESS DENIED, but yet I can get into The Onion, which has an amusing Bush/FermiLab article today.

So, what does Randi have good taste about? Oh, you, right?
