Yes! Do that!

And as someone else stated, try for a date after December 21, 2012.

And spare no words, Phil. Make sure the people that were so sure about the doomsday senerio feel as foolish as you can. >:)

I read it and enjoyed it, but can’t remember if you used “mass” as verb in this book like the last one. If you did, well, Phil you know my opinion of that:

I would assume it at least has an appendix regarding clubbing baby seals then, yes?

But I’d buy a book about puppykicking for myself. I’ve never had much bodily coördination, so I’d savour the opportunity to enjoy the fun by proxy.

First off, the world-didn’t-end book should be titled The Day the Earth Still Stood. Second, send Death to the Creationists, Moon Hoaxers and Flat Earthers, as well as the plasma cosmology/electric universe crowd. I’m sure someone among them will have some negative things to say.

I still haven’t read the book, although it has been laying beside my bed for quite some time. I prefer audiobooks, so maybe I should wait for that release (or it’s already there and I have to be bitchslapped)

You know, on my deck, right next to my freezer containing the Bigfoot costume and entrails.

Happy MLK Day, everybody.

Forty-six years later, maybe we’re starting to realize “The Dream.”

A best of the BA blog *&* Pharngyula with PZ Myers – Now *that* should have the fundies & Woo-lovers screaming and frothing at the mouth – and providing heaps of extra publicity!

Might be worth considering ..

I’m pretty sure they’ll oblige you .. If that is *really* what you want! :-O

Death is a painful experience, full of the agony of dying and the terror of knowing one is about to die. In your last moments you kick and scream and soil youself. Then comes that bright white light as you see your new corpse lying on the ground!

Then you awaken again as a vampire / ghoul with an insatiable appertite fro brains / blood ..

… and write this review.

Death was pretty horrible I wouldn’t recommend it at all!

Phil’s book OTOH was awesome! ;-)

In the second edition of the book, just add this chapter:

“Oh, by the way…

God does not exist.”

Then sit back and watch the hatred flood in.

In your role as a science educator I would have thought that you’d have seen put to edge us toward that goal in your own book. Or at least have put the measurements and distances in both formats. After all that would save time and money when having to do editions for the rest of the world.

wow!
where do I pre-order?

Phil, that’s actually a very good idea, and you should write it and schedule it for publication on 12/22/12. We’ll all be here, barring the unforeseen.

Then again, a small book version of your Apollo Hoax Debunking stories might make for some entertaining reading, not to mention the permanence that the web still lacks, quite honestly. That’s how I found your old site originally. And it is still an excellent reference. Just wish it were up to date in 21st century web coding (hint hint)

I still have Asimovs book on the bible and let me tell you, it should have ended up with a witch burning. He was SO honest,,,not so good in a world of flagelants and delusional woo-wooos.

Banned books sell well. I’m just sayin’.
