My talk with John Horgan on bloggingheads.tv is up. I’m sure the fact that the label “weird life” appears directly over my head was an accident (right, John?). Anyway, we had a good talk about parasites, aliens, and how to handle hype in science. I may have made some mistakes–feel free to fact-check in the comment thread. Unfortunately, I can’t strike out my spoken errors, but we can make the best of it. (If you hanker for more scienceblog/bloggingheads encounters, see these talks by PZ Myers and Chris Mooney.)

Just out of curiousity, how did you import a frame of video into the post? Didya have to convert it first with another program, or will the SciBlogs thing do that for you?

I’m impressed. You speak as well as you write. Your ability to focus on the most appropriate response is what I noticed most.
