The Voice of Reason

Post by MrGuilty » December 23rd, 2011, 10:38 pm

and they answer, "which world"
this world I live in
this objective fact world
I live in
when I see myself as I appear to myself
the shock of recognition
this meaty beaty body
sits and types
the nights go bye in dollars and cents
Winter Solstice metafiscal blues.
I used to be smart

Paris or Baltimore
during the terror
it could have been worse
it could have been better

secret science
silent snow
secret science
got to know
silent snow
secrete snow
silence science
at our peril

secret science haunting refrain
ghosts and pandemics intrude my thoughts
I used to be smart

Science flourishes because of its openness and the ability of other scientists to reproduce and build on results. But, in this case, this very distinguished advisory board, which I should point out is -- was set up on the recommendation of the National Academy of Sciences shortly after 9/11 and contains outstanding scientists, as well as security experts, this is the first time -- after looking at many other cases over the past seven years, this is the first time they came down on this side of the decision, that is, to restrict some of the information.

So, first thing, I think, as the Supreme Court, so to speak, of this decision-making process, the journals should try very hard to comply with their request. On the other hand, we have to make sure that they have the means -- and we're waiting for them to demonstrate that -- they have the means to get this information for those in Asia and elsewhere around the world who have a real need to know the details.
