Independent Speculative Analysis
Or in more common parlance: Conspiracy Theories. Here’s 30 of them to spend some time reading about.
Now I’m a firm believer that large-scale conspiracies don’t actually exist, but I do find that they make nifty stories. I also think it’s a good exercise in critical thinking to consider them, and to find the flaws in reason or bad science.

Q! Social Bookmarking?
You might have noticed a few icons at the bottom of each article. These are links to social bookmarking sites so you can share the content of these pages, should you so wish, with others who use the same services. I’ve included Reddit, del.icio.us, StumbleUpon, Technorati and Digg for starters. Are there any other services everyone uses I should add?

Questions that mean nothing
I was trying to work on a post where I identified questions that mean nothing but are asked anyway. Everyone knows these questions, they’re kind of matter of fact and reflexive. Sometimes they’re said to be polite. Usually they’re not annoying, but sometimes they are.
“Did you find everything you’re looking for?”
“How’s it going?”
“Can I put you on hold?”
The last of those three is by far the most annoying, I couldn’t tell how many times I’ve been asked that question, responded, “No,” and then been put on hold anyway.
Anyone know of any others that are obvious?
