Quote of the Day (Dave Barry, on Journalistic ‘Objectivity’ and Science)
“We journalists make it a point to know very little
about an extremely wide variety of topics; this is how we stay objective. We
are also extremely impressed with scientists, and we will, frankly, print just
about any wacky thing they tell us, especially if it involves outer space.” —Dave
Barry, “Ok, Who Stole The Universe?”,
