Hacked. Gotta be. And if that's the case, then it's a bullshit move, and won't do anyone any good.

Yes, but it would seem to highlight (again!) a possible skills deficiency somewhere. How easy is Twitter to hack?statichaos wrote:Hacked. Gotta be. And if that's the case, then it's a bullshit move, and won't do anyone any good.
And at least they didn't post our address.
Sorry everyone at RationalSkepticism.

That wasn#t Richard's twitter in the first place.
The official one has no underscore: http://twitter.com/RichardDawkins
The one with the underscore is there to make money by getting commission for selling books over Amazon.

Oh Josh ... oh the irony.The twitter.com/RichardDawkins account is being used by people associated with RichardDawkins.net (which is the official Richard Dawkins site). We use it for announcements. Richard is aware of how we are using this twitter account, and he has not expressed an interest in using it personally, but we have given him the information to do so if he pleases. So if Richard does decide to start twittering, he will use the RichardDawkins account. The Richard_Dawkins twitter account and RichardDawkins.com are NOT affiliated with Richard Dawkins or RichardDawkins.net .
Apparently metacide is practicing how to NOT make friends.
Josh
Neither is forumcide you know.
