Science communication tramp.
I’ve been an informal science educator and vaccine advocate long enough to know that anti-science is not partisan.

In photosynthesis, oxygen is a waste gas expelled during food production.
As best we know, Cyanobacteria was the the 1st to do this; making the Earth’s atmosphere livable for aerobic multicellular life, like us.
So we owe our existence to these germs farting the oxygen we need to breathe.

Germ farts, Uranus puns, quips about politicians being like sea stars and anemones: using humor in science communication has been my schtick in class presentations, at Pacific Science Center and continues at the Padilla Bay aquarium.
Looking forward to hearing about his take & techniques, tonight.

It was watching Balsam’s character lose little parts of his body through “Little Big Man” that made me realize the story was a parody of “Candide.”
Balsam’s Mr Merriweather was Voltaire’s Dr Pangloss.

It really is a wondrous moment, isn’t it?
I lived near, and played in, wooded areas nearly my entire life
-on both coasts.
Yet, it was only 2 years ago, just shy of my turning 60, before I actually saw one.
Only seen 4 more since.
My wife got me this after the 1st one; learned a lot from it:

Doing public engagement of #science in nonprofit venues, I tend to be a little more subtle.
The time for being subtle has long since passed.
I’ll be keeping the decal I just affixed to my water bottle conspicuously placed while at the aquarium today, as well as its original message for #vaccines.
