About

Short, snappy, often bellicose. Filled with lard. Possibly the product of a family unit. All these things and more are the kinds of speech acts people might be inclined to utter about the author of this blog. More frequently than not engaged in some action, the author defies gravity in the normal fashion and often prods the proles and up-slaps the toffs in comic fashion, as done in hospitals. Completely informed on matters of note, as long as they interest him, the author wishes to be remembered for having done the right thing by the wrong people. Currently alive and thinking of wax lions.

On a slightly more serious note, the author is definitely working on a PhD dissertation concerning the epistemology of Conspiracy Theories. His Department: Philosophy; the name of the University: Auckland. He can be contacted via the magic of reinterpreted e-mail links at: m-dot-dentith-at-episto-dot-org.

You can also hear his dulcet tones every second Sunday on Auckland’s 95bFM on Jose Barbosa’s ‘Sunday Breakfast Show.’

He was recently published in `Skeptic Magazine’ (Vol. 14, No. 2, 2008). The title of the piece was not his choice.

The author was awarded a scholarship from the fine people at the James Randi Educational Foundation in 2007. Thanks, Randi.

Thandi.
