BBC Science && Our Universe

BBC: Universe ‘child of previous one’

I hate journalists’ writing about science because they often times report about something they themselves didn’t quite understand and usually end up writing misleading and pseudoscientific articles. And even though BBC is usually better than the rest of the bunch, in this case I was left with the impression that BBC journalist Sarah Cruddas had no clue what she was writing about. I wish I could learn more about this particular research from the original sources. But today there was a party at a Microsoft’s Vice-president’s house (which is a technological marvel!) and I had too much red wine, so I’ll have to postpone that until I get sober.

And I’d like write a separate blog entry about their house. It’s like a fancy spaceship from a very good sci-fi movie. But it’s for real.

    We have all been discussing this article on our science forum and it makes total sense to us.

    Hi Sarah

    Don’t know anything about this article but thought this might be a way to contact you. Remember Jim Dumsday’s Science Club - and the competition that you won?

    I went to a wedding of one of his Science Club members a few weeks ago and met up with several other Science Club members. We got to taliing about the presentations that got the select few to Alabama and disagreed on what your presentation was.

    Please can you remind me?
