Greetings Science Fans and Practitioners,

Personally, I think we should all consider ourselves a "science practitioner". Have you ever noticed that the definition according to a search engine like Google doesn’t always agree with you? Given that, let’s think a bit about what sets someone who appreciates, practices, or supports science, apart from many who think science is for people in lab coats and has little to do with our lives.

Hello Fans of Science, Reason, and Critical Thinking,

Well a lot of soul searching has been going on around the country, if not the planet, since Tue night or Wed morning. I would only like to say that the most reliable source of information for making many decisions these days is SCIENCE and REASON. I hope that we can all rally to support it whenever the opportunity or necessity arises. If or when you reach out to any leaders in the community, local, national, or international, I hope that you will look to science, reason, and critical thinking. to inform all concerned. There is much work to be done and our support is essential. That includes gathering reliable information to inform ourselves in what we do and support.

Greetings Science Appreciators, Critical Thinkers and Science and Reason based Skeptics,

The challenge of understanding the meaning, intent, and consequences of what we face these days is immense. I think we need to be able to have confidence in the validity of what you personally believe to make informed decisions that may have major consequences to each of us as well as to the community as a whole. So how do you know what to accept or believe?

Greetings Friends of Science and Reason,

I have recently been noticing a lot of articles about how our world seems to be working now that we have really been tampering with it for the last few hundred years. One of the most compelling is Human Footprint | Top Predator | Episode 2 | PBS from PBS. (If you only open one link from this week’s missive I hope you can watch the

Let’s get this off and running as many mothers would do! I hope that even if you didn’t celebrate Mother’s Day you at least reflected a bit on how essential mothers have been throughout history to science. For instance…
