Resources for the Sane


I don't usually link to other people's material, inasmuch as others usually have large enough bully pulpits of their own and don't need to borrow my tiny bully pulpit to be seen. But in this time of mass insanity, those of us of like sane mind need to stick together, so I've compiled a list of useful links written by others who appear to be reasonably sane.
