I thought this was apropos to the discussion of skepticism: The Geek Rapture

I especially liked this quote -

Quote:
Well, I�m going to go with �I don�t know�. I know it�s not a very sexy answer, but it�s one that thinking about the subject critically leads me to, and it�s one that I�m okay with. And �I don�t know� doesn�t mean something won�t come to light that would make me change my mind. Indeed the subject fascinates me, and I will continue to look into it, and keep an open mind about what the future holds. But I�m not going to make any hard and fast predictions, nor am I going to adjust my life or my thinking as though the Singularity is coming.
