5 hours! on PBS re science! climate ... and *Kentucky
* where Mr. Ham's 'creation museum' is, also where he + Nye debated a while back; all of which spawned [$15M was it?] in subsequent donations to build An Ark. also. too. They did. And Nye was there (in a video)
A backstory re Nye's efforts to convert a Mr. Bastardi (weight-lifter. climate ∆ denier) ..to look at ice cores, finally get to grok the Why and How that %CO-2 IS the demonstrated metric etc. And Nye finally (via an Institute of which he is CEO) got the mylar/photon-driven spacecraft ^launched^,
The video of interactions Nye/Ham + followers portrays that level of dogged-obtusness/which shall be vigotously defended within that (now cult) once called American 'Christianity' ..scary to watch (and see the body language, etc.) These are the ones spraying flat-black over that Enlightenment thing. Nobody in civics class ..I can recall: ever prepared us young'uns to have Neanderthal neighbors
Boffo Science evening!
Curious if above lineup was peculiar to KQED/SF or ..anyone else see such a local listing?
