More fiddling around with the links over on the left.
I've kept a link to James Lileks well past the point where I deleted the rest of the links to people who annoy me, just because I really enjoy his writing about mundane things. The stuff about his kid, his dog, the weird bits of pop ephemera from bygone days, and all the rest are brilliant, and while I haven't read the site regularly in a while, I always enjoyed his weird ramblings about apolitical matters enough that I was willing to skip lightly over the occasional brain-dead blather about The War.
That link is gone now, because he finally crossed the line with his recent remarks about Salam Pax. It doesn't quite put him into Little Green Footballs territory, but I've had enough. I won't link to it, but you can get there via Matthew Yglesias or Daniel Drezner. Between them and their commenters, anything I might say about it has pretty well been covered.
On a more positive note, I added a long-overdue link to Michael Nielsen's blog. Michael literally (co-)wrote the book on quantum computing, and has some very nice thoughts on science education as well. Check it out.
I also added some more good links in the "Geek Stuff" section: two site's from Donald Simanek's collection of pages, and MC Hawking's Crib, just because.
