There’s a pretty cool event brewing in New York next Monday, the 10th, tonight that y’all should come check out.
I’ll be teaming up with Imaginary Weapons author Sharon Weinberger and Ann Finkbeiner (who recently published The Jasons: The Secret History of Science’s Postwar Elite) to talk about “Scientists, Warriors and the Lunatic Fringe.” Which means space-shooting lasers, Air Force teleportation schemes, and psychic kittens will all on the agenda, as we chew over “the use and abuse of science in our government today, and its implications for America’s national security.“
The Nation magazine is hosting the chat, at the venerable Strand bookstore (12th & Broadway), starting at 7pm. It promises to be more fun than a nuclear hand grenade. And, who knows, an ol’ fashioned Defense Tech drinking session might develop afterwards. Hope to see you there.

Psychic kittens?
Really?
Meeee-yowww!
If I lived in NY (or even in the US), I’d be there in a minute. Sharons book is great! My only complaint was that she doesn’t grasp what half-life means. Aside from that, it is a wonder romp through fringe/pseudo science.
But don’t forget, government sponsored fringe science isn’t just limited to the US.
While none of us can forget the BPP (Prospects for Breakthrough Propulsion From Physics) at NASA, one of the people who didn’t bring Warp Drives to NASA, is back in old Europe not bringing anti-gravity to the ESA. Don’t believe me?

Perhaps her next book should be about Eugene Podkletnov.
