Thank for protecting real American freedom, and but the AASL should've had the backbone during the crisis. And releasing this talk and ceremony before the election would've swayed more people to reason and common sense.
Excellent
A true American hero.
No person is more deserving of this recognition. Bless you Dr. Jay....keep on keeping on.
Wise words from a true master. Much respect for Dr Levenson!
How is it possible that the science community still functions as it did hundreds of years ago? They still try to silence other scientists and smear them for not agreeing? We always talk about evolution but in some cases, it is impossible to find that there has been any progress. We laughed at this kind of scientists in our history lectures because it was so absurd that they could behave like this and call themselves scientists. I'm glad to hear that not all have this medieval mentality. Thanks, Koonin for restoring some trust in your profession.
Such a brilliant and thoughtful writer.
No offence to Salman Rushdie but if Rushdie had written something silly about the holocaust would the Library of Congress have felicitated him this way?
What a fantastically stupid comment, "if remarkably prescient and brilliant writer had instead written bad books, would we celebrate him?"
