Jonathan Katz: Member Of Science Team Tasked With Gulf Solution Is A Homophobe, Climate Change Denialist [UPDATE]

Tuesday, May 18, 2010


Apparently, before Katz was removed from the team, the whole team was "off the team":



==Jonathan Katz, a physics professor at Washington University in St. Louis, is another member of JASON. But Katz's major research focus has been astrophysics, and in an interview Friday with a St. Louis paper, he didn't seem confident that he had been much help with the mission. "I was honored to be invited and enjoyed the experience," said Katz. "Did I have anything much to contribute? I think I have some ideas for how to prevent this kind of thing from happening in the future, but I don't have anything very specific to offer on the present problems. It is very much in the hands of the real pros." Asked if he'd be willing to go back, Katz said: "I'd be happy to, but someone's got to send me an email or a phone call."==

Nobody should be doing deep sea drilling without a plan and resources in place for accidents.



I think that's what this 5-member "crack scientific team" that Steven Chu put together has determined, and what was already known -- It's out of control, and BP's answer is to stall for time with the 'straw' while they drill another well to tap into the one that is gushing, which they say is going to take months.
