I'm afraid that Crichton dissapoints me as a scientist, but still thrills me as a writer. This article, as misinformative as it is, is very convincing, so it affirms his skill. Its a pity though that as a scientist himself, Chrichton throws objectivity and proper scientific fact out the window of and blatatly lies about a number of subjects (DDT, Gloabal Warming, etc).
If I had the time I'd post exactly how the Climate Change community and peer review is structured. Maybe next week.
