Fairly accurate reflection on what science on TV has come to these days. A couple of years ago I heard a talk by Paula Apsell, the senior executive producer of NOVA, in the MIT Physics Colloquium series, and she was basically pleading the case that dumbing down (she didn’t use this term) NOVA-type programming was necessary to reach as wide an audience as possible–because science is under attack from tens of millions of policy makers and idiots in America, so we must fight them with entertainment!

Really??  Would we do the same thing to children in our schools?

When I watched science programming on TV as a kid, shows like NOVA, I didn’t understand everything. That’s why I became a scientist.

Is it a blog if I just re-post Abstruse Goose comics all the time?

Cuz that’s all I feel like doing now.

I know some people that could really fit in one of these too, you know, 6.7 days a week.

Evidently I need to stay in more, because I only just found out about this incredible comic today. It’s very funny.
