Comic Con 2009 – On Like Donkey Kong

eureka2.jpg

We’ve just heard that we’re going back to Comic Con this summer, with a panel topic and line-up even bigger and better than last year’s event.

We are teaming up with Jennifer Ouellette and the crew at the Science and Entertainment Exchange to produce a panel on “MAD SCIENCE,” i.e. Science as a double-edged sword, ethically and morally neutral in and of itself, but dependent upon who wields it, and how.

Beloved Internet Personality Phil Plait is lined up to moderate (after he gets his tattoo) and we’re expecting guests from Eureka, Battlestar Galactica, Fringe, Stargate: Universe and more.  Watch this space for additional details.

    A maxim I read more than 50 years ago:
    There is no evil in a gun, a bullet, or an atom bomb.
    The evil is in the intent of the user.

    Nice post. I study something tougher on completely different blogs everyday. It would at all times be stimulating to learn content material from different writers and practice slightly something from their store. I’d choose to make use of some with the content on my weblog whether or not you don’t mind. Natually I’ll provide you with a link on your internet blog. Thanks for sharing.
