Dear members of Humanist,

The relatively long hiatus in Humanist messages is over, the cause of it
a holiday, first for me in two years, or perhaps three. It's been that
long. To give everyone something to chew on in the relaxing days that
remain (at least to those in the northern hemisphere who have escaped
the serious consequences of a runaway lifestyle), the following message
will provide food for thought. In my experience the journal Metascience
is often a good source of such food. The latest issue provides what
looks like examples worth the candle.

Yours,
WM
