Resumen de Flies and Projectors and Bears, Oh My.
This editorial criticizes the claims of 2008 U.S. presidential candidate John McCain and his running mate vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin that government appropriations for science were a waste of money. Criticisms of specific projects that funded research into the DNA of bears in Montana or the purchase a projector for a Chicago, Illinois Planetarium are considered. These allegations are countered by descriptions of the scientific value of these projects.
