I didn't sleep well this morning, so I went surfing down my blogroll to find this little beauty: Hot Peppers—Why Are They Hot? The really curious thing about this blog entry is the fact that it has nothing to do with climate change or weather which is what the blog seems to be about for the most part; and it originally came from a blog entry by a chronobiologist with an interest in sleep problems, originally published in July 2006.Apparently people who suffer from sleep disorders also show a tendency toward procrastination as the blog entry in the latter blog, A Blog Around The Clock [I'm a sucker for double meanings in titles] has comments dribbling in from July 2006 through September 2008!
In comparing the quality of the comments I'm afraid I have to give the Oscar to Watts Up With That? Apparently people who do climate change stuff also have a tendency toward stand-up comedy. I suspect that comparing comments on a sleep disorder blog with almost any other blog is not really fair, but then neither is life.
Who could have guessed that birds don't suffer from too much capsaicin. I am going to try to mix in a few peppers with my next load of seeds in order to keep those pesky squirrels at bay. Watch this space.
