Quote of the Week

Disgruntled, unemployed male postdoc:
Science has withstood the Catholic Church and its death threats. Science is not gonna go down to a bunch of feminists.

When did women and the church threaten science with death? Where did he learn that, anyway? Does he come across like that in interviews? Someone who harbours such dark thoughts has a reason not to be hired.

I am glad that you have not let the difficulty of finding science jobs turn you to darkness. I hope many people tread your book.

Thanks as always, Louise. Such guys hide their ignorance in anonymity. As you know, I do not find the Dark Force attractive.
