Wall Street Journal of Monday, October 6: Enron and Bright

[Michael Quinion]

> Inside, on the editorial page, Dinesh D'Souza has a column on atheists
> calling themselves "brights." Reference to "a recent article in the
> New York Times"by "philosopher Daniel Dennett."

They're a bit slow picking this up - that article was back in July.
See http://www.worldwidewords.org/turnsofphrase/tp-bri1.htm, and also
http://www.the-brights.net, which has some links to other articles on
the subject. Somehow, I feel "bright" doesn't have legs ...
