Thanks for the note on my writing skills, I keep at it best I can…just trying to keep up with all of you! You will like Chris’s site, some good articles, also try the audio link to the TG interview, that is somewhat engaging.

Good points all around. Ken and I saw Chris on The Daily Show. Will check out his site.

Thanks.

I do not doubt that. They are a group typically liberal in nature but not exclusivly so. It will take groups like that, the National Academey of Science and others to really start to confront this administration, and special interest driven the industries that continue to circumvent standard vetting by the scientific community. It will also take an effort by the people to contact legislators to act on the information they have. I am sure guys like Waxman are just itching to get the majority back.

I’m familiar with the Union of Concerned Scientist. I’m on their email list. I believe they endorsed JK, as did many Nobel Laureates.

Also evident in Chris’s observation is the double standard this administration applys when making a policy decision, they will read the science as need be. Of course their is Senator Frist (no standards?) while he fully supports the right to life agenda , has given the president full support on the ID issue, yet has split from the administration on stem cell research. It is a known fact he and his family hold large interests in the medical reseach industry. I had read a news piece some time back about the holdings, I cannot recall if they were involved with stem cell research, but I do remember some contention over the issue. At any rate who says you can’t mix politics, buisness, religion, and science? Appears Bill has no qualms about it.

I think there is not much that Henry Waxman hasn’t covered. He is one busy Congressman.

I have not have a chance to investigate this much, but it looks great. Thank you!
