Online, about being online 12 Jul 2008 My paper in TREE is now available as an in-press corrected proof. It is titled “The roles, reasons and restrictions of science blogs”, so thanks to you guys (and Bob O’Hara in particular) for the raw material and opportunities. Administrative
Administrative Off to talk religion and evolution 18 Sep 2008 Okay, so in the AM I am off to drizzly Melbourne, my old home town, to address a conference on the implications of the project of naturalising religion, especially in terms of evolution, to an audience that may, or may not be religious. So if you never hear from me… Read More
Administrative Admin: May be off line for a week 13 Feb 2011 So I am trying to transfer my blog and domain name to a new host, and am about to be without internet for a week, as I move into a new flat. These two facts may interfere with a good outcome. If things go well, you won’t notice. But things… Read More
Administrative Welcome to ET 3! 23 May 2009 Welcome, dear reader, to the third incarnation of Evolving Thoughts! I leave Seed with a heavy heart, but I hasten to add I did not move because of anything Seed did, and I was very honoured to be with them, and wish them the best for the future.

Nice article. Is: “If a blog is not deleted when it becomes active (and it is general good practice that it should not be)” a mistake, do you mean active?
I noticed that typo, too — I think you meant to write “inactive”. Also, I don’t think I’d label Dave Munger a medical blogger; he blogs on psychology at cogdaily.

And psych is a subset of medicine, nicht wahr? Nein. Psychiatry is a medical discipline. But psychology and cog-sci are studies of the mind. (In the US, psychiatrists are MDs, while psychologists are PhDs.) Saying psychology is a subset of medicine would be like saying that cell biology is a subset of medicine (at least that’s the way I see it).

Tell that to the medical students at my local university who have to spend four semesters studying psycology and writing difficult exams on the subject. You could also tell it to my health insurance who pay 120 Euro an hour to have a psycologist treat me for my mental illness 🙁

In the U.S. a psychologist does not have to be a PhD. She can have a MPsych, or an MA, MS, MEd. MCouns, as long as she has the required course work and certification. There are two psychologists in my family, one with a PhD and one with a MA. Both work[ed] as school psychologists.
