I've been extremely gratified by the huge response to the Mooney-Sokal op-ed in the L.A. Times, and there's been still more response since last I posted. In particular, sci-fi novelist David Brin, whose books I read as a kid, posted a very strong endorsement at Daily Kos. I don't agree with everything that Brin says, but believe me, he says it powerfully. Worth checking out.

BTW: Brin's fairly critical review of my own book can also be read here, on his website. I think he likes me a bit more when I'm paired with Sokal....
