There's a new review of Bogus Science up at Amazon that's a bit more mixed than the previous one. The reviewer has a couple of things he and I simply disagree about, which is fair enough I suppose (though a bit less certainty in her/his statement of position might have been nice), but it's a thoughtful review and was highly flattering about most of the book. And one quote in particular is likely to be bandied about Snarl Towers a lot:

The author's style is reminiscent of Stephen Jay Gould at his best.

Less certainty? On the internet? Oh, bless your heart, you sweet young innocent thing, you...

My sympathies to Saint Pamela.

WOW. That's exactly what I've been saying for two years, but I'm glad someone else spotted it. (In my case, I've had a similar review experience, only with my being compared to Hunter S. Thompson and Joe Bob Briggs. I can deal with that.)
