New comment on Item for GeekList "A Curmudgeon Highlights Games with Outstanding Historical Notes"

I actually like his argumentative games more than non-argumentative games on the market, such as Through the Ages or 7 Wonders Duel.
But you call his footnotes informed?
Phil depicts Richard Dawkins as a champion of individual selection and suggests that he himself has a better theory. In reality, Dawkins actually opposes individual selection. Could Phil do his basic homework before boasting about himself?
Phil says that Amartya Sen claimed there is no famine under capitalism. In reality, Sen only argued that there is no famine in a democracy. Phil distorted Sen’s argument to fit his own worldview (which, according to himself, follows the natural law and is therefore infallible).
I haven’t gone through all his footnotes, but why would I? Judging from the ones I have read, I know I can’t trust any citation he made without checking the source material myself. They are “informed” only insofar as "misinformed" is one kind of informed.

And continuing with the subject of magic: Do you know any magic tricks? Have you performed them? Do you have any prepared decks or other gimmicks?

It's quiet around here, so I'll keep the party going. Here's a couple of songs from one of the few bands from the early 2000s that I'm still listening to with any sort of regularity.
