Actually I think they should pass a couple of science courses before they are allowed to run for office. With a grade of B or higher.

Another example of why there should be a constitutional restraining order keeping politicians at least 500 meters away from science.

A sterling example of how industry (corporations) try to suppress anything that might infringe on THEIR interests and the public be damned.

24 years of research and study=FearMonger. How dare they base comments SOLEY on his Scientific Study. How can that be credible? Now, if he was say on a Tourism Board with a background in accounting, THEN he would be qualified to publicly state the geological status of CR – (SAVE, come spend your $$$) Way to go Sr. Gonzalez, keep them in their place!

That is what scientists do…Predict events based on scientific facts! Or the scientist in Italy who were sued because they failed to predict a major earthquake! Perhaps you should ask your priest when the next earthquake will be.

Sounds like the Mayor in Jaws, or the City Council in Dante’s Peak! Let’s damn the possibility in favor of the mighty Dollar. Goon in the water is safe! (^^^)
