So, our friends have been busy.

• Jonny Scaramanga has been all over the media this week (here, here & here), raising the issue of Christian fundamentalist schools in the wake of the ‘Trojan Horse’ reports. I hear he is on Radio Berkshire tomorrow morning at 8am.
• Did you hear the news that a computer passed the Turing Test (as administered by Reading Uni), or maybe that it didn’t? Dean Burnett has a typically sideways take on the story.
• David Spiegelhalter gets a knighthood. Congratulations Sir Professor, sir!

Remember, we’re back at The Outlook this Thursday to hear Dr Martin Graff answer the question Can you really find love on the Internet? I hope to see you all there.
