The Good, The Bad and the Ugly

Lubos Motl has an interesting and well written post on the recent supreme court CO2 decision. He looks at it from the angle of how a government should function and the constant pressures faced to hold the outside influence of groups with an agenda from corrupting it to a narrow minded advantage.

Thanks for the kind words, Jeff. A compliment from you is appreciated! Including the extra “i” in my last name – Motýl (essentially the same pronunciation as Motil) means a butterfly.

#1 Sorry about the name. I’m at work so I wrote very quickly.

We all know what can happen if a butterfly flaps its wings. What happens when a Motl does? 8-/
Lubos is usually very loud, and very right. Not a common combination!

Thanks, Jeff.
That is indeed well written.
I posted a comment there that will be visible when approved.
I am writing a summary of my research career, “A Journey to the Core of the Sun”, and tonight I am pleased to report that all is well – despite the turmoil of science and society!
