Notes from Howard's Sabbatical from Working. The name comes from a 1998 lunch conversation. Someone asked if everything man knew was on the web. I answered "no" and off the top of my head said "Fidel Castro's favorite color". About every 6-12 months I've searched for this. It doesn't show up in the first 50 Google results (this blog is finally first for that search), AskJeeves says it's: red.

Everything you ever wanted to know about climate change
Just read this post on the climate change report released last week. Read the whole thing, including "how Exxon-Mobil-funded denialists are already trying to pay scientists to "undermine" the report – since clearly none of the thousands of scientists who worked on the IPCC report have sufficient skepticism. What annoys me is the way in which the IPCC report, which is truly the gold standard for any scientific project, is criticised as though it were the work of a small group of cranks."
