Gonzalez loses, DI whines. No surprises.

Since the whining has already started, it is worth reminding ourselves that Guillermo Gonzalez’s publication record at Iowa State University wasn’t as impressive as the Discovery Institute want us to think it was. He was not a "stellar astronomer" while at ISU - i.e. where it counted to getting tenure at ISU. Three first-author papers just aren’t going to cut it.

Hector Avalos sent me his response to the Discovery Institute's 'shocking' revelation that people had been discussing Guillermo Gonzalez's affiliation with Intelligent Design creationism before they denied him tenure.
Casey Luskin continues his misguided complaints about ISU's decision not to grant Guillermo Gonzalez tenure.
It's not certain there will be a decision immediately, though: From the Iowa State Daily:
Remember Guillermo Gonzalez? He was the astronomer from Iowa State University who was denied tenure earlier this year. The reason for the tenure deinal? Depends who you ask.

Looks to me like the DI wants to be Privileged, but is living on the Pathetic Planet. Oh Boo-Hoo DI. Gonzalez's publishing record sucks at ISU - get over it.

Publish or perish.

Another data point.
