Comment Not a gun nut! (Score 3, Insightful) 26

I'm no gun nut, nor do I worship at the feet of the second amendment, but this seems downright stupid. I'm betting this Bauer-Kahan person, although well intentioned, is probably not really well informed on this. I'll go do a little research.

I'm back. Just as I thought. A very nice person with good intentions who is also a lawyer. So yeah, no clue. She does seem to have something against plastics in general.

Comment Morons in charge! (Score 5, Insightful) 145

This kind of cassette loaded methodology for the production of vaccines, may be one of the grater medical advances of the century. And the "brilliant" zeros of the tRump administration have decided to trip it up at every opportunity. Shame, shame, shame on the thirty-nine percenters who back this garbage no matter what!

Crap like this is why the morons want to discredit science. Sometimes I almost want to join them. Because they say shit like this. UFP's aren't the best way to get nutrition but, as bad a cigarettes? No way. I've consumed a lot of both over the years. My health got a lot better after after I quit smoking. I didn't notice a big change when I quit drinking Coke. I should know, I work at one of those research institutions mentioned above.

Comment Hmm! I don't think so (Score 4, Insightful) 132

I've been doing research for close to 50 years. I've never seen a situation where, if you wipe out 2 years work, it takes anything close to 2 years to recapitulate it. Actually, I don't even understand how this could happen to a plant scientist. Was all the data in one document? Did ChatGPT kill his plants? Are there no notebooks where the data is recorded? This kind of thing doesn't happen to a good scientist. Oh, I see. It's 2 years of work, not 2 years of research. This is just another sad "lack of backup" story. The modern day "my dog ate it".
