I don't know what (1) refers to, and you're cherry-picking with (2), but the voting records of the Democrats show a largely pro-science bias, and the GOPs have the exact opposite. It's irrelevant that they're doing it fo

The Isaacson book: (a) contains some amount of content that seems to be ripped straight from Hertzfeld's Folklore site. (b) reads in many places like a reporter's notebook - a bunch of notes to follow up on, but no actual followup

This is cruelty, not humor. Look at this from the perspective of a different profession: Why is it a problem if I'm a doctor and I put a non-lethal poison into every few flu shuts on April 1st? Because April Fools. This is how people w
