Commentary
Summary:
* What a world! Some say that the world is not reading. Yet, e-mails, text messengers, chat rooms, news outlets instruction manuals, PDF documents, online databases and blogs at exploding. Yes, the newsroom staff at the nytimes was reduced by 7.5%. Competition, cost pressures and technology have a way of reducing the drag effect of death weight.
* Global Warming? It the February spike in mid west tornado activity the result of surveillance and reporting , Gulf Warming, or Cooling from northern Canada weather fronts? That eminent climate and ecology authority, Senator John Kerry , seems to have it all figured out is case some of the rest of us seem conflicted, uncertain or confused.
* Meanwhile, seniors in OLLI classes at Osher RIT are taking on science topics like the Physics of Global Climate and Darwin’s five year round-the world voyage of discover aboard the converted bark, H,M.S. Beagle. at the age of 22 beginning in 1832. It took Darwin another 25 years to digest his experiences and publish his work on evolution, natural selection, and the science framework around the biologic time line and path of the human species. Intelligent Design has come under the microscope and is in the cross hairs of this serious minded group.
