LOL! I never knew about the John Cleese "podcast" videos. Very funny stuff 
linked from that NY Times piece. Definitely something to embed in my biopsych 
lecture slides in intro!

ps: Oh, and the target article is quite good, as well!

If you haven't already seen it, there is an interesting (to me at least) 
article in today's NY Times entitled, "A Real Science of Mind" by Tyler Burge. 
It talks about the misuse of fMRI data and makes some good points about 
Psychology's real successes in understanding how "the mind" works. It might 
make a good discussion starter for some of your students
