The difference between real science and right-wing science.
 
Was watching one of my favorites, Carl Sagan, in a repeat of his Cosmos
series. Real science explained by a real scientist.

your time by trying to *communicate* with me through rec.boats, because,
well, you are among the permanent members of my dumbfoch dumpster, and I
don't read the vomit you post, except by accident on occasion. As
always, have a nice, simple-minded day.

Regarding religion... I appreciated his quote.... a paraphrase of one
of his fellows, Marcello Truzzi, who posited "Extraordinary claims

It is usually futile to try to talk facts and analysis to people who are
enjoying a sense of moral superiority in their ignorance.

But you KNOW that a brilliant, very well educated scientist like Sagan

Loogy, I thought you said you didn't make political posts.

Guess I was wrong.

Anyway, welcome back. Again. And again.
