CoT: get yourself some word verification from Blogger comments. This spambotting seems to be a disease.

So this is seriously a relic of Galileo?

One might say that it's appropriate that it's the middle finger - an early astronomer flipping the bird at faith-based antipathies to science, forever.

I highly recommend the book version to anyone in or interested in academia, medicine, queer/trans* theory or activism, politics, and those concerned with understanding science as a tool of advancement. while the book may madden you, it will also invigorate you to keep plugging away at the work you are undertaking.
