…and you listen. If you’re unaware of this, the confirmation of two good science appointees, Jane Lubchenco for NOAA Administrator and John Holdren for Science Advisor, are being obstructed by anonymous Senate holds (one isn’t so anonymous and is by Sen. Robert Menendez (D-NJ). ScienceBlogling Mike Dunford has all of the details–go contact some senators.
On a personal note, whatever little legitimacy scientists have was given to Democrats in 2008 (not to mention some money and time). It’s time those ungrateful motherfuckers pay up (although be polite when you contact Senate offices).
Again, Mike has all of the info.
