I recently ran across this site (http://www.ucsusa.org/scientific_integrity/interference/a-to-z-guide-to-political.html) as featured on Slashdot (http://politics.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/12/14/2123214).
It's a site that chronicles the current administrations interference in scientific inquiry.
It's sad and disgusting, all at once.
Sad, disgusting, and not a surprise: the Re[a]gan administration redefined ketchup as a vegetable to meet some silly requirement for school lunch nutrition. Politics always trumps wise and honest policy in this administration.
Quote from: "Amor Fati"Sad, disgusting, and not a surprise: the Regan administration redefined ketchup as a vegetable to meet some silly requirement for school lunch nutrition. Politics always trumps wise and honest policy in this administration.
Ketchup isn't a vegetable? Dammit! Now I have to recalculate all of my calorie counting back as far as 1984. Sonofabitch!
