| | One last amandment from the Guardian on the meeting:
Outside the committee room, Peter Saundry, executive director of the National Council for Science and the Environment, said he was bemused by Crichton's apparent position. "If you read his book, you are left with the impression that environmentalists are only one step up from the sort of people who will cross the road to murder your children, but then you get to the author's note at the back and he makes this statement saying he is not a climate change denier. It's hard to know what his position is."
Well, obviously, Mr. Saundry neither knows how to read a book or how to think logical, because Michael Crichton said that his book is a book of fiction with some truths, but that his appended notes are what he thinks is real about this issue. I am scared that such short-sighted (obviously government-sponsored) scientists are leading a National Council... I can understand that Mr. Crichtons ideas are not in the interest of the National Council and its funding from the state, because independent researchers (perhaps employed by the oh-so bad industry) might come to a different conclusion and thus reducing the funding of the NASE.
