Charles Q. Choi’s biography qualifies me to write thusly about Charles Q. Choi.

He haqs NO science background.

He is a “science” writer for crap media-—

“Charles Q. Choi is a science reporter who has written for Scientific American, The New York Times, Wired, Science, Nature, Popular Science, and National Geographic News, among others. For his work, he has hunted for mammoth DNA in Yukon, faced gunmen in Guatemala, entered the sarcophagus housing radioactive ruins in Chernobyl, and looked for mammal fossils in Wyoming based on the guidance from an artificial intelligence.

“In his spare time, Charles has traveled to all seven continents, including scaling the side of an iceberg in Antarctica, investigating mummies from Siberia, snorkeling in the Galápagos Islands, excavating ancient Mayan ruins in Belize, climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro, camping in the Outback, and avoiding thieves near Shaolin Temple.”

BUT HE DOESN’T HAVE A SINGLE QUALIFICATION IN SCIENCE-—or they would have listed it.

You are welcome to swallow whatever such an unqualified flack for the scientific establishmant puts out.

"You are welcome to swallow whatever such an unqualified flack for the scientific establishmant [SIC] puts out."

As a physical chemist, I recommend that you put your disdain for "the scientific establishmant [SIC]" where your head resides. Both will be well shielded from onslaughts of knowledge -- or sunlight...
