The Space Shuttle crew is rewiring the Space Station today. I believe Al Gore should follow suit and rewire his brain. It has obviously blown a few too many fuses.
The number of email communications I have received due to the Laurie David Op Ed piece has been phenomenal. I am personally responding to each person who has been in contact with me. Thank you for your comments. As you know, the criticism has been harsh. NSTA is committed to providing quality products and services to our members and the larger science teaching community. We have policies in place that take into account a variety of situations. They have served us well. However, we learn from every experience including recent events. Global climate is a very important science/societal issue. In fact, NSTA has always supported sound environmental science education. You might want to review the NSTA position statement adopted by the Board of Directors in February, 2003, one of many efforts to support quality science teaching. Our web site is www.nsta.org. Your support is very much appreciated. It makes a difference. Linda Froschauer NSTA President 2006-2007/
