	<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>If differences can be worked out, that should generally be done regardless of christmas. But if they are insurmountable, then there&#039;s the eternal vigilance bit far as I&#039;m concerned.

F&#039;course since I spend the holidays with my family I really don&#039;t have time to butt heads with my enemies anyway...</description>

		<description>As a current agnostic (pantheist to be precise) and former atheist, I cannot for the life of me help but to feel the least bit nostalgiac, not to mention optimistic, during this winter solstace/christmas season. It could just be the booze and ambiquitous amount of food stuffs talking, but most likely not, as this is something that has been lingering on my mind for some time now. While others choose to obsess over the negative aspects of humanity,  I choose to look forward to what is to come and to what we (and I) are capable of.  A new year is drawing near, a year of political upheaval and idealogical reformation, a process that is long overdue, and I will personally be pursuing both my own goals &amp; objectives without hesitation. Here&#039;s to to a New Year. Perhaps even, a new beginning. Cheers.</description>

		<description>From my experience, a cat and a dog sharing a sun spot on a bed isn&#039;t too odd.  Two cats together, forget it!  Oh, and poor Copernicus.  The fuzzy one, not the astronomer one.  Cute but poor kitty!</description>

		<description>Well the cat looks like a small lion, but the dog is nothing like a lamb. Where are your glasses?</description>
