Reactionary Scientists

I wonder how often our friend from Kyoto is planning to publish and what tweaks we’ll hear about next week?

I also wonder how many of the comments about “must fund all” come from – or actually are a type of – the application of the sort of pressure that Gearhart told his audience in DC that he and others applied to induce Atala to write Pelosi?

I’m trying to get used to the idea of scientists as reactionaries.

Politics aside, I don’t think any of the research could have gone any faster even without the “pressure” from either side. The basic science had to be done, and was.
