Except perhaps "A Short History of Nearly Everything", as it doesn't really deal so much with the stupid as it does the scientifically unbelievable.

Fantastic writer by all counts, though
I agree, but in that one he does point out stupid scientists..... Excellent book!
I think I might look up some of his books and buy some. He seems most excellent, like Pat McManus and the type. Now...I suppose I'll start with Amazon.

get all of them, theyre great!! the only books ive ever laughed out loud at! he is the master of dry humour, hell take everyday things and write a sentence or to about them, a classic observation of the normal, and it will be hilarious. I love it!

I think she's bored and just found something to fill her time.
I was at an hospital some time ago and I could hear doctors being paged on the PA all the time, like
Dr Moore, Dr Tom Moore, 1421
I was pretty close to lifting up the phone and calling 1421 and pretending that I was Dr Moore, and see what comes out of it. Maybe i could get the nurse to give the patient a green tea injection...
