"So far this book is annoyingly sloppy in its fact-checking (since when is Marburg a form of ebola? -- to name just one instance) and doesn't seem to have any understanding of correlation vs. causation (one person's family treated symptoms with antibiotics...thus "proving" that the source of everyone's Gulf War Syndrome was biological) and has veered into such wild speculation that I'm quickly losing interest." — Aug 19, 2014 11:33AM

“The gods of the Disc have never bothered much about judging the souls of the dead, and so people only go to hell if that's where they believe, in their deepest heart, that they deserve to go. Which they won't do if they don't know about it. This explains why it is so important to shoot missionaries on sight.”
― Terry Pratchett, Eric
