Skepticism

The skeptics movement has mounted some especially good ones:

http://wheel.dcn.davis.ca.us/~btcarrol/skeptic/dictcont.html – The Skeptics’ Dictionary. Pretty amazing & more complete (& thoughtful) than the North TX site. I think (but am not sure) that one guy wrote the whole thing. Balanced & sane.

http://www.inwd.com/kmedeke/cults.htm – Good cult index. Check out some of the Waco ones--scary.

http://www.mtn.org/~quack/ -- The Museum of Questionable Medical Devices

http://www.mcspotlight.org/home.html – The anti-McDonald’s page ( was featured on 60 Minutes).

http://www.scn.org/news/newspeak/ -- American Newspeak. Euphemism exposer.

Misc

http://www.technoir.net/jazz/louie.html – The best Satchmo page I’ve found.

http://oposite.stsci.edu/pubinfo/pictures.html – A pile of great Hubble photos. (I couldn’t find the "fingers," though.)

http://www.parascope.com/en/1096/tesindex.htm – Tesla page, has links.

http://lang.nagoya-u.ac.jp/~matsuoka/AmeLit.html – This is an index of American Lit pages compiled by a Japanese professor. Amazingly thorough. (He’s also done one for English Lit which is accessible through this page).

http://www.adbusters.org/ -- The Adbusters page. Anti-corporate.

The West

http://www.americanwest.com/ -- Big West (both Old & Modern) site I’ve seen.

http://homepages.dsu.edu/jankej/oldwest/oldwest.htm – Old West site. (Another big one.)

Amusement

It's funny because it's true....

http://www.snpp.com/ -- The Simpsons Archive. (I don’t know why some of these URLs aren’t lighting up.)
