Mayhem in Sepang – the 2016 Malaysian Grand Prix

As the dust settles on this one, it would appear that Nico Rosberg now has a stranglehold on the world championship. At the start of the race, things seemed very different. For once, Lewis Hamilton got a good start, staying ahead of Rosberg into turn 1. Rosberg was the victim of an ill-advised lunge down […]

The Smelly Bus

The Quest for Freedom (Provided you Think as I do)

Following on from my discussion with Paul Williams about baking cakes, the KKK and false dilemmas, comes the next part of this particular article. As mentioned, the discussion with Paul ended up involving other people, and some of the details I post here. The original article can be found here. Perhaps unsurprisingly, this discussion can […]
