What a Waste!

The box from which I took my eggs this morning claimed that its contents came from "Vegetarian Fed Hens."

Surely there must be something better to do with vegetarians than feeding them to hens!

    Nope - that's about the best use for them.

    Or does it read like a notice or headline of sorts. The meaning perhaps is, a vegetarian, who would not approve of blood farming, fed the condemned yet innocent in all manner of being hens, as a penalty for some individual lifestyle choice that reflected poorly on the policy makers of defining the behavioral qualifications to be a vegetatian.

    Tim,

    Are you saying that this is one of the wittiest things TT Tom has written, a notion with which I'm quite at ease, or are you saying it's one of the wittiest things I've ever written, a proposition I regard as odious?

Libertarians, My Libertarians!

Cruel to be kind means that I love you . Because, while I think you are mistaken, your hearts are in the right place -- yes, even you, Silas --  unlike some people . This Breitbart fellow (discussed in the link above), by all appearances, deliberately doctored a video of Shirley Sherrod to make her remarks appear virulently racist, when they had, in fact, the opposite import. I heard that at a recent Austrian conference, some folks were talking about "Callahan's conservative turn." While that description is not entirely inaccurate, I must say that a lot of these people who today call themselves conservative give me the heebie-jeebies.

"Pre-Galilean" Foolishness

 I am currently reading The Master and His Emissary , which appears to be an excellent book. ("Appears" because I don't know the neuroscience literature well enough to say for sure, yet.) But then on page 186 I find: "Asking cognition, however, to give a perspective on the relationship between cognition and affect is like asking astronomer in the pre-Galilean geocentric world, whether, in his opinion, the sun moves round the earth of the earth around the sun. To ask a question alone would be enough to label one as mad." OK, this is garbage. First of all, it should be pre-Copernican, not pre-Galilean. But much worse is that people have seriously been considering heliocentrism for many centuries before Copernicus. Aristarchus had proposed a heliocentric model in the 4th-century BC. It had generally been considered wrong, but not "mad." (And wrong for scientific reasons: Why, for instance, did we not observe stellar parallax?) And when Copernicus propose...
