Subject: PKF: Skeptical Inquirer


Hello List,

Nice to see some activity here again. I'd like to point out a remarkable
article in the Nov/Dec Skeptical Inquirer: Disturbing Cycles by Ralph
Estling (who "writes from Ilminser, Somerset, UK"). Coming to Feyerabend as
I do for support for culturally alternative, so-called irrational and
pseudo-scientific counterpractices, I occasionally check out said journal
to keep tabs on the enemy, as it were. This little article quite surprised
me. The author suggests that skepticism ought to be turned on science
itself, and goes so far as to approve of the murder of Archimedes. Is it a
ruse? a trap?
What do you think? Check it out!

Best wishes,
Mark Shulgasser
