Thanks Paul, this is an interesting reference and I have
forwarded to a physicist friend with a ton of scientific code
in his lab.
It is sad that the opinion piece takes cheap shots at [US] politics.
But I am truly happy to see that Republican senators keep scientists
honest. They are fully with Feynman here; I just wish that Democratic
senators had the same honesty principles and spine
