Monday Science Links

This week's heaping helping of science:

• Mark Liberman at Language Log looks at a Professor Hodgins and his brain 'crockus' - with a follow-up here - and the neurological research that doesn't support anything Hodgins is saying.


• John Hawks in his Anthropology Weblog looks at a new look at climate and Neandertals and concludes they didn't die of the cold.


• Cfeagans at Hot Cup of Joe looks at the Bosnian Pyramid (remember that?) and how it collapsed.


• Stefan Scherer at Back Reaction looks at the equinoxes and explains how we know with such precision when they come.


• Pamela Gay at Star Stryder looks at Mars and its tantalizing promises that never quite come true.

Enjoy!
