Today Ninja gives you part two of the Geek Gathering. We folks know how to live in the moment. Katherine talks about the tedium of editing. Scarborough Dude takes photos of us, continues to swear and Ninja is pretty sure she hears him talking about wife swapping at one point. Talk turns to the meaning of religion and its sense of community celebration and sharing. It occurs to the group that perhaps the flood described in biblical times may actually have happened. We conclude that all religions are basically the same. But first here’s a comment about the last show from Kentie of the flatus show.com and his co-host that venerable old man Jose, and a couple of notes from Rob commenting on and correcting some of my assertions. Thanks Rob and Ken.

Fossils-they can form quickly
Hot Fossils and Rebel Matters 136 - Celebrating Earth Hour 2008
In the true spirit of tree hugging, Ninja and Special K head down to the park to celebrate Earth Hour 2008. On the way they meet a star gazer, a cottager, and several screaming children. Oh yes and Ninja notices a computer mouse attached to a shampoo bottle slung over an overhead wire. Join this soundscape for a taste of the event Toronto style.
