Random Quote

Pat Robertson, who once claimed to have diverted a hurricane from its path, yesterday had his presidential campaign disrupted by a second-rate snowstorm. A dark-horse contender for the Republican nomination, Robertson was forced to cancel several stops on a scheduled 18-city barnstorming tour of southern Iowa when weather grounded the helicopter he had planned to use.

[Jerry Roberts, San Francisco Chronicle, 5 February 1988]

Looks like I'm going to be sitting on a panel with Wesley Clark—he's on the climate change bandwagon.

Shouldn't the science panel have practicing scientists? Or are big names and popular writers more important? I guess I'm not clear what their goals are.

PS. The cookie problem is still in effect.

Now my feelings are hurt.

RPM,

In my years at college I've found that scientists discussing their specialty are so far beyond anyone who is listening that their talk is almost worthless. It's better to have scientists interested in making their view understandable on publicly viewed panels. PZ is a master at this. Go pirates!

Sorry PZ, I guess you are chopped liver. Just look at the bright side. This is a wonderful opportunity to bring cephlapod porn to a wider audience.

No, you count. In fact, you look like Joe Nobel Prize next to the other four. I think it's important to have both scientist and other folks involved. The arena is already open to the other folks -- they should involve the scientists as well.

Just because he is a military man, do not underestimate the bread"I don't know, but lets ask an expert.." His response on education.
