Just a word about all
those "people" out there who enjoy relating better to
science (technology). Some do, and that is worth promoting, as you
do. But some don't, as C.P.Snow noted long ago and Rudy Baum revisited
in his essay "Science And The Nature Of Awe." There is
also a large group of "people" in society who are feed
up with technology and its predominance in the Western world. Our
science to them is cold and heartless and its mechanistic approach
robs them of nature's grandeur.
I don't think we can convert them, but we should not think that
ours is the only show in town.
