Wow, thanks folks! And Ginger, I do my own podcast– Q and BA, but it’s on hold until me schedule clears up a little.

Excellent, BA!

Your quote from the show now hangs prominently on my office door.

Can’t wait to hear it.

din: knowing’s not the problem, it’s the “and then use” bit that can be somewhat tactless.

I would say that some knowledge should not be sought.

While I’m against religion saying ‘we shouldn’t take path A since its against my belief’, i’m wish someone in WWII had said ‘I really don’t think we need to uncover a quicker way to kill the jews’. Sure the gas worked, but did we really need to know, and then use, the knowledge ?

And I really hope we don’t have seeking knowledge to our genes so they can launch an airborne attack to wipe out all people with specific genes (like dark skin).

I listened to this on my way to see Bob Dylan last night. Great stuff. Have you ever considered doing a podcast yourself, Phil? Maybe with Sean over at Cosmic Variance?

lol! exactly Bruce. Well, more like school work in my case, but still.

That was a very good podcast.

especially considering that you know, it was on a Friday 13th
