  1. Re: the schizophrenia comic. I’ve read several other comics by the same author and they’re all just as eye-opening and powerful. We are frightened of things we don’t understand, but unfortunately there are few sources that give accurate, comprehensible information about difficult issues like mental illness. I’m glad Mr. Cunningham is addressing some of these.

  2. Very cool article on irrational behavior and how marketing takes advantage of it. Thx.

    I’d write more, but these links are ‘free’ so I’m clicking over to another website that must be better since they charge for their information….
