Last year I did a run-down of my year and thought I’d do the same again this year.

Wow! I only just read that Phil Plait is the new President of the James Randi Educational Foundation!!! Yayayayay! That is sooo massively cool. I know Phil, you know, he’s like my friend and everything. I know the President of JREF. I totally do.

I just had an email from Phil Plait with a link to a very funny reaction to the season finale of Torchwood. Oh! How I laughed. Obviously, if you don’t know what happened and don’t want to know what happened, don’t watch.

Yes, yes, I’ve seen the other ones using the same clip.

What a great time I’ve had over the past five days! As you will have already known, Phil Plait was over in the UK to visit CERN with us over the weekend. You can read about it on his site and, of course, the podcast he and Brian did will be going live soon, too.

Last night, Phil did a talk at Skeptics in the Pub. I was so happy to see Andrew Jaffe and Violet Berlin who both wanted to meet Phil. They only got a few brief moments with him as Phil was mobbed by the throngs of people there.

Phil is now on his way back home. I think he had an excellent time and hopefully he’ll be back soon.

This afternoon, I’m off to the House of Commons for the Intelligent Robots in Science and Society seminar. I’m really looking forward to it. I met up with Julian Mayers this morning (he’s producer of the CERN Podcast) and found out that he’s going as well! Weeeeee!!

After today… X Files…

  • Brian Didn't Get Dawkins' Job -

    Phew! I can finally say something about this. Brian was up for Dawkins' job, down to the final three (or was it four?!), but didn't get it. And the winner is...

  • Observer Article -

    Honestly, this isn't a blog just about Brian. That would be really weird... but... indulge me just a bit longer.

    Some of you may have seen the article about Brian in the Observer today. Now, you guys are intelligent and realise that not everything you read in a newspaper is accurate. This was made absolutely clear to me this morning as I was sitting in my bathrobe, hair all over the place, barefoot, all coffee breath, unshowered and read, "he married his American wife, glamorous TV presenter Gia Milinovich, in secret." :-/

    Ah well...
