The Dimming of Dawkins
That the thread descended (with modification!) from Dawkins to chimps somehow seems appropriate. As I read his letter's excerpts (along with the excellent fisking),
this Bright man dimmed, dimmed, dimmed before my eyes. I better not hear about this kind of thing from Daniel Dennett, or I shall have to fall upon my copy of Darwin's Dangerous Idea.
An excellent posting.
