gimpy appears to be some sort of amorphous octo-tentacled blob
gimpy can be contacted at gimpy.gimpy at hotmail dot co.uk. Corrections of spelling and grammar especially welcome.
I reserve to the right to publish any emails, in part or in their entirety, unless specifically requested otherwise.
Due to a slip of the keyboard I mistyped my email address above, it’s fixed now.
PS I know I am often arrogant, self-righteous and strident so there is no need to continually point this out to me.

I’m sorry, the position of irascible witty science blogger is already taken!

Sir, I challenge you to a duel. There can be only one.

PUBLIC HEALTH WARNING
The gimp says “Corrections of spelling and grammar especially welcome.” But if you’re foolish enough to take him at his word you’ll find yourself being called a troll and all sorts of other nasty names.
Which begs the question, can you believe a word he says about anything?

He didn’t call you a troll until sometime later, when you started seriously trolling, from what I can see of that.

Norbury,
Anyone who follows the link and looks at the comments for themselves can see that my first ever post to this forum, which dealt only with spelling and grammar, was on December 20, 2007 at 10:43 am.
Gimpys post in which he used the word “troll” comes only 8 mins later and immediately after mine.
What you can see is therefore 180 degrees out of phase with the truth.
When I discover so many people harping on about evidence-based medicine who can’t even assess straightforward evidence sitting right in front of their noses, then I start to think that the homoeopaths might well be right.

Your bad grammar is something up with which he will not put.

“Your bad grammar is something up with which he will not put.”
Which doesn’t “beg the question”: why does Gimpy put up with this kook (not troll)? If nothing else, his worthless posts are making it harder to follow what’s going on by looking at the Recent Comments column.

I like to point out that people are wrong. It gives me warm fuzzy feelings of moral superiority.
