We had a big crowd yesterday—20 or more people showed up at the Natural History Museum for our London Howlerfest. We spent a few hours strolling through the museum, a few more hours at a nearby pub (I don’t recall the name of the pub, but I do remember London Pride, Wildcat, and Wicked Witch), and few hours at a nearby restaurant. I don’t recall the names of all the people that I met there (which makes the fact that I only remember what I was drinking even more embarrassing), but I did take pictures. Browse the collection below the fold, and do me a favor—if you were there, name the people, and ‘fess up if you were one of them. I apologize if you aren’t in any of these, and should be; Larry Moran also took pictures, so I’m hoping that between us we’ll have everyone.
The latest Tangled Bank is online (a little bit late) at Neurophilosophy. My notice is a little bit late, too, but in one of those odd coincidences, it’s because I’m in London…as is this week’s host, and I met him at the natural history museum yesterday.
Better late than never, and just in case you haven’t read it already, head on over.
There was an annoying interview with Richard Dawkins in Salon yesterday, which, unfortunately, I wasn’t able to read until today because…

…I was getting the story straight from the horse’s mouth.
Get an eyeful in the comments.
I was out visiting a few people yesterday.

Guess who.
Remember, I’ll be at the Natural History Museum this afternoon at 2:00 for the London Howlerfest!
Take a moment and get caught up in these tangles of links:
Otherwise, chat among yourselves (hmmm…seems to be a lot of these open threads around here lately. Don’t worry, next week I’ll tell you all to shut up, it’s my turn.)
Frolic in the comments. Put those hankies down!
She’s on YouTube, accusing her opponent of believing in evolution. Wow. That wins me over.
