    The comments on that Yglesias post are hilarious.

    Although not as hilarious as the comments on this post, I should add.

    I defended Herbert Spencer here and here but my comments appear to have been deleted at the latter site (DeLong’s).

    Wirkman Virkkala has a great name. He also has a great blog — thanks for directing me to it.

    Scott E. Kaufmann at Acephalous writes occasionally about Spencer, who’s part of his thesis topic.

    Thanks for the nod, John. Better way to find what I’ve written about Spencer is here. You can read about my exchange with Jonah Goldberg about Spencer here.

    (Apologies in advance if this seems like link-whoring. Just thought I’d point people in the right direction, given that a fair number have clicked over.)
