	<description>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.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Contrarian opinions&lt;/i&gt;

AKA &quot;childish whining&quot;.

I feel bad for Lurker, who is forced by some bizarre compulsion to read all material in a publication.  The rest of us don&#039;t understand that sort of pain because we are capable of reading headlines and skipping articles that don&#039;t sound interesting.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Ok, everyone remove their pocket protectors, dental retainers, and other sharp geek appendages and lets all have a group hug in support of Phil and celebrate our geekiness. Contrarian opinions are hereby forbidden.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Epic fail.</description>
