To what lengths are you willing to go to feed demand for popular interest EVEN if doing so gets in the way of actual science?

The internet is limitless, there is room for everyone. We’re having fun events that connect people with an interest in science with real scientists. You don’t have to attend if you don’t want to 🙂

Randall Lee Reetz, be nice. We do a lot of hard mathy science stuff too.

Stuart Rosenberg, I think the flavor is really important, might change the viscosity of the fluid. What might be even more concerning, is that the fluid will change if it is sugar free or the real stuff.

I feel it way more important to “be nice” to science itself that to any particular person or group. If science is anything at all it is the escape from the noise of ego and hubris. Lets start doing science. The irony (and danger to science) is especially profound when it is science interested people themselves that can’t seem to understand what science is.
