 Posted: Mon Feb 05, 2007 12:02 pm Post subject: Shermer has article in Playboy |
  |
|
Michael Shermer has an article in this months edition of Playboy entitled "Why Americans believe weird things"
It was basically all the same points he made in his book in a short one page essay. Pretty good stage for a skeptic though.
My 30 second effort of trying to find the text online was futile so sorry for no link.

People actually still look at playboy for the naked chicks? Why? What's the point, when there's so much great porn available free on the internet?

Partly because you can't easily take a computer into the washroom or onto your bed..... And then of course there are the articles.

My cellphone's internet connection works in the bedroom and bathroom, and I have Domai as one of my main bookmarks. Yum!

They certainly don't buy it for the lame party jokes... Actually, I may pick that up next week. What month's issue is that?

its the february edition.
and it is actually a really good magazine with good articles, they had a rather lengthy piece on Seth MacFarlane which was pretty interesting. Its just like all those other guy magazines, Maxim FHM but the girls get naked, tastefully mind you.

I can't read that whole comment especially with the tastefully part and not look at your avatar...giggity, giggity.
