    The world’s first Creation Museum is opening soon. Where? In the USA of course, where 50 million of the 300 million population apparently side with the argument of creation. And there are dinosaurs in that museum. I’m confused. Read more in the full article. The museum’s website is at www.answersingenesis.org, where they are currently comparing…

    A several million year old human endogenous retrovirus that is now part of our genome has been resuscitated (kind of – it was mostly rebuilt from intelligent guesswork). There’s a bit of worry about how such resurrections may endanger the current human race. I’m sure that’s the plot of a sci-fi or zombie film, or…

    For some reason I really like the Halloween season.

    Take a look at my new website: www.keyperformancenutrition.co.uk. Want to buy some nutritional supplements?

I should also be adding some interactive stuff, like…

    Dick Hoyt and his son Rick compete in marathons, triathlons, and ironman events. While that in itself is an excellent thing to be able to do, bear in mind that Rick is disabled and his father pushes him the distance in his wheelchair, or on his bike, or pulls him in a dinghy. “Eighty-five times…

    Avoiding the expensive Gower golf clubs, there are a couple of golf courses I’ll try over the next couple of weeks: Palleg GC Glyn Abbey GC This is far safer than rock climbing, and I still get out and about. My life insurance premiums are much better these days.
