Carl Sagan Day

Jason Thibeault

Today is Carl Sagan Day, celebrating the 75th anniversary of his birth… two days early. There’s a celebration in Florida, and if it was held on his birthday, on Monday, nobody would be able to come.

I have had a post queued up for two days now, ready to auto-publish on Monday morning. For today, though, go celebrate at one of the bigger blogs:

Bad Astronomy
Pharyngula

And I’ll repost A Glorious Dawn.

About the author

Hi! I'm a tech guy, skeptic, feminist, gamer and atheist, and love OSS and science of all stripes. I enjoy a good bit of whargarbl now and again, and will occasionally even seek it out. I am also apparently responsible for the death of common sense on the internet. My bad.

I have opinions. So do you. You want to share them with me. I would like to do likewise. Please don't expect a platform for proselytizing that will go unchecked and unchallenged, though. Contact me via the clicky thingies under my banner.

The commenting rules are simple: don't piss me off. This rule has worked for me for a decade; I have never found a need for any other rule, because any other rules leads to rules-lawyering. Just remember -- this is my property, not yours.
