So injecting kids with scientifically-proven medicine that can save their lives and the lives of countless others is bad because of a fantasy-driven belief that it causes autism, but injecting a lethal pathogen — in fact, the most lethal protein known — into your face to help ease the globally threatening scourge of crow’s feet is just fine and dandy." Not to mention eating her own boogers on MTV. I could not find the actual video, but this is funnier. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWYejtgFJRQ&eurl=http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=eating+boogers&hl=en&emb=0&aq=3&oq=eating+b “I see.

Umm, my tongue-in-cheek comment got taken far too seriously, and I apologize. In any case, I'm still amused at the general incestuousness of the skeptical blogosphere, whether it be in graphics, subjects, or, frankly, staffing. Fortunately, it keeps growing and adding new perspectives. Otherwise, I'd think we were all just sitting around talking to ourselves. I really hope this show takes off, for no other reason than to dispel that fear. Anyway, this'll teach me to be silly on a blog full of uptight, no-fun skeptics, with their "science" and "reality" and "facts" *grumble* ;P Of course, it might help if my sense of humor was any good, too.

Hopefully the next creature in charge will learn from our stupidity.

I have a feeling he credited Phil with finding it, but I could not find it in the time I had between parental duties.
