    Dear Folks,Never has there been any kind of serial narrative more fascinating (to me at least) than the conversations that have shot back and forth  in the past few days.  I sincerely hope that it all continues and that nobody bows out. Though I grew up in a culture of science, with my physicist uncle Val (Fitch) and his brother (my father) ta…[Read more]

    <p>As a non scientist my only contribution to this discussion is the expression of my gratitude to Duane for initiating such a riveting conversation.  It actually began on the very day that I was, during my arduous journey of self-education regarding science, wondering about the boundaries between life and non life.  I await, with baited breath, t…[Read more]

    Linda Fitch replied to the topic What did you think of COSMOS last night? in the forum Deep Time Journey Forum 10 years, 1 month ago

    I eagerly awaited this program as yet another potentially important effort to “tell the science based story of the Cosmos” – interestingly presented, I thought, on the Fox Network.
