“Scientists blame the audience for being too stupid, shallow, or lazy to understand. There has been a fascinating debate in the blogosphere lately about communicating science to the public, and it's clear that most scientists just don't get it. They can't be bothered to talk to real people. Nobody will care about your issues if the price they have to pay is listening to a long lecture from Morton the science bug.” PeopleIfsLongHas BeensRealCarePayAudienceIssuesClearStupidListeningScientistBlameCommunicateDebateLazyFascinatingShallowBugsLecturesBothered Author:Mark Powell
