Are you afraid of expert opinion? Compared to some of the popular rags in this country that are routinely opinion rather than news or evidence-based, it's good to hear from people who actually know what they're talking about.
"The Conversation is an independent source of news and views, sourced from the academic and research community and delivered direct to the public.
Access to independent, high-quality, authenticated, explanatory journalism underpins a functioning democracy."
Which isn't quite unrelated to the topic and Peter's comment on the naivete of humanity. We have one habitable rock, and a current attitude in
major democracies of celebrating ignorance.
It's not a good mix.
I was wondering if Sagan's petunia is the inspiration for Douglas Adams' bowl of petunias?
