In my years of reading through the blogosphere, my proudest moment has to be the one in which
Jim Henley quoted me. He hasn't done so recently, but last night
he might as well have:
[Steven] Weinberg makes a plausible-sounding case that the Mars program, vaporware or not, is already cutting into NASA's science budget. He misses the obvious conspiracy theory for some reason. Which scientific research will suffer most heavily? Experimental cosmology. Which scientific research in NASA's purview would most naturally discommode the Christian fundamentalists in the President's base? Hey, I don't need two separate answers to dispose of both of these questions!
As I understand they say in the blogosphere, indeed.
