And The First Interviewee Is From...

Turns out the Flat Earth Society hasn't gone away. It's gone global.

Well, that might be a bad choice of words.

Still, you notice the first guy they quote (emphasis added):
"People are definitely prejudiced against flat-Earthers," Tennessee-based computer scientist and society member John Davis tells the BBC. "Many use the term 'flat-Earther' as a term of abuse, and with connotations that imply blind faith, ignorance or even anti-intellectualism."

Gee. You don't say. Well, I'm kind of glad they're out of my neck of the woods now.
