Well phrased. I like that.

I think I found another James Watson who is also a biologist and did research on the subject of African parasites in the Caribbean because of transatlantic negro slavery. This James Watson is in his 30s or so.

The accusations against Watson reminds me of what happened to William Shockley, the co-inventor of the transistor. He held similar views on race, but his abrasive personality (not his racial views) alienated most people he worked with. He started Shockley Semiconductor Laboratory in 1956. The next year, eight of his best researchers left to form Fairchild Semiconductor (still in business today). Unlike Watson, who was a gentlemen and well spoken, Shockley's personality undercut his credibility, distracting people from the validity of his racial arguments.


Well, that's just good scientific writing. In science, there are no absolutes, just evidence that takes us to a better understanding at this particular moment of something. When someone starts declaring that something is a fact, no further discussion can occur because it shuts down inquiry. Unfortunately, we know that's exactly how science is practiced these days.

Definitely interesting.

I know you're a sensitive bitch. Nobody gives a fuck. Cry about into your pillow while your fellow Feds take their turns on you.
