Science has no means to accomplish public literacy if the technical language gets usurped by media implication. Mainstream alteration of the term organic is conspicuous as an example - all meat, dairy and produce is organic. The biofuel bandwagon is a steamroller that squashes any other legitimate attempt at energy solutions, while grinding up a lot of precipitate and not solving the technical aspects of the non-problem. Good work, if you can keep the populace barefoot and pregnantly paused over who might be the next american idol. Disappointing in that i had some respect for Berkeley science.
