Cyclic Quicksand
Further to one of our previous posts (and ensuing discussion), I've found a nice article that touches on the subject of the anthropic principle while discussing a cyclic universe. The ideas regarding the cyclic universe are pretty out there, but the rebuff of the AP is nice and clear: "Relying on the anthropic principle is like stepping on quicksand".

Not if you're not so arrogant that you don't recognize the fact that the AP indicates that we ARE the mechanism... *duh*
