DISCLAIMER, DISCLAIMER, DISCLAIMER!!!
We here at show headquarters understand that science news may not be for everyone…
The stories here typically begin with phrases like:
Resent research into “fill in the blank” reveals…
or
According to a new FMRI study on “insert cephalopod here”…
Or
Unearthed fossils found of previously unknown “fill in thing you never knew existed” …
Or
An interesting discovery from NASA just beyond the “insert in somewhere spacey”…
Only some people in our society want to hear stories like these…
So we don’t do the show for everyone…
We do this…
just for you…
Because you…
are one of us…
One of us who find the discoveries in science…
not just informative, but exciting, and inspiring…
One of us,
who revel in knowing,
thirst for more data,
hungers after every study for further research.
And while the news world at large continues to pander to popular pulp,
keeping science news far off in peoples peripheral…
You are one of us…
here to fill in the blanks for This Week in Science…
