A reader reacts to Green —
Reading by ARC Light — Andrew Wheeler on the sticky business of book reviews. Interesting stuff.
APOD with a lovely photo of the ISS and the crescent Earth
SMBC explains Christianism in one easy lesson
Massa’s Gone, Ensign’s a Sitting Senator — Your Liberal Media, hounding Democrats, protecting Republicans.
Except for blacks. And women. And natives. And … uh, never mind. — The past is a golden country, when you’re an idiot.
The Ghost of Bobby Lee — An excellent piece by Ta-Nehisi Coates. For those of you who like to pretend the Civil War wasn’t about slavery, the Southern states in their own words. It wasn’t a noble cause, it was a vile cause, and I say this as son of the South.

April 14th, 2010 at 5:19 pmTiny correction about the ISS. Some modules were also launched into orbit by the Russians. And once the space shuttles are retired, the ISS will be entirely dependent on the Russian Soyuz and Progress transporters.
I had a tiny part in contributing to the ISS project BTW (translating some tech specs).
I currently own 1001 English language works of fiction plus approximately 300 non-fiction books in any language and an unknown number of German language fiction, children’s books and comic books/graphic novels.
