Too busy to write something interesting

Therefore, another link round-up:

• How to reach anti-vaccine idiots believers.
• Why it's difficult to determine whether 2014 was the hottest year ever for the planet even though it was 4th coldest ever in Illinois. ("While the global numbers are not in yet for 2014, the January – November results indicate that the central US was about the only cold spot in an otherwise warm world.")
• The Economist's Gulliver blog thinks Marriott still sucks in the way it handles wi-fi.
• Wait, the Euro is at $1.19 and Sterling is at $1.51? Good thing I'm going to both zones in five weeks.
• Andrew Sullivan's Dish Awards are out.

There are a couple of other articles on my Kindle too, I just haven't got time to link them.
