Can scientific development and innovation push the economic recovery forward? The authors of a new report "Big Potatoes: The London Manifesto for innovation" believe so. Launched at the Royal Society the report highlights how there is currently very little debate in society about research and development. It has become socially acceptable not to know about science, argue the authors, and this change in public and political attitude is stifling economic recovery as well as limiting future innovation and therefore the creation of new industries and jobs for the future. Quentin is joined by one of the reports co-authors Professor James Woudhuysen and the former vice-president of the Royal Society, Sir Martin Taylor.
Looks like the British are well f*cked then.
British scientists now think that asking people what photos they prefer using to represent themselves on their Facebook profiles as they get older is science. Apparently, as people get older they shy away from showing photographs of themselves and show pictures of objects, landscapes, gatherings etc.
Something to do with the middle-age spread, double chins, balding pates, greying hair and wrinkles, I'll wager.
These idiot programme-makers think asking girly questions that wouldn't look out of place in a woman's magazine is science!
No doubt it is all part of their agenda to attract girls into doing science.
These girly-men who collude in this exercise of the feminisation and dumbing-down of science should be ashamed of themselves.
Just have a look at this crap:
