Stochastic Gain Medium: Meyer's underwhelming response.
http://stochasticgain.blogspot.com/2010/03/meyers-underwhelming-response.html
A tube-mounted, ill-behaved amplifier for science and science policy. Tuesday, March 23, 2010. Warren Meyer, the soi-disant " Climate Skeptic. To my earlier post. Criticizing his discussion of feedbacks. The response is largely a combination of Bart Simpson ("I didn't do it nobody saw me do it you can't prove anything") and the government of Orwell's Airstrip One ("We have always. Pointed him here; any traffic is good traffic. As of last week, Meyer is writing:. That isn't justified by the contents of th...

A tube-mounted, ill-behaved amplifier for science and science policy. Tuesday, March 30, 2010. Can a biologist fix a radio? This isn't a joke about biologists, but rather the title of a fun manifesto on cellular signaling and control pathways: Can a biologist fix a radio? Giving a seminar today, Andrew Capaldi. Noted that microarray techniques done well are like measuring voltages across the components of a radio. Things have come far since 2002, when Lazebnik's essay was first published. First, I don...

A tube-mounted, ill-behaved amplifier for science and science policy. Thursday, May 27, 2010. Using a ruler to measure the wavelength of light. Place a ruler on your desk- the metal kind is best, but even a wooden ruler will do- and shine a laser pointer at its finest scale at glancing incidence. A diffraction pattern should appear on the far wall. A ruler is a reflection grating. In the November 1965 issue of the American Journal of Physics, Arthur Schawlow published a brief article. Reason Hit and Run.

A tube-mounted, ill-behaved amplifier for science and science policy. Sunday, December 6, 2009. On Warren Meyer and feedback. FOTB Martel Firing asks for my take on a bit of 'blog science. Would-be) "Climate Skeptic" Warren Meyer's thoughts regarding feedback. The request is as follows:. I must admit that I'd find the papers beyond my knowledge as I remember nearly nothing from HS Chemistry decades ago. But thanks for the offer. Less than 200 words, please, and no math. Thanks.) (.)

A tube-mounted, ill-behaved amplifier for science and science policy. Friday, June 20, 2008. Toward market control of agricultural runoff. Way back in the day", when I was still seemingly suffering from or perhaps just getting over the loutish aversion to environmentalism that free-marketeers catch like the flu, I remarked on Dani Wenner's long-defunct liberty-news.com. Revived thanks to archive.org. About the inability to rein in the Gulf of Mexico's Dead Zone. Posted by B. Kalafut. Reason Hit and Run.

A tube-mounted, ill-behaved amplifier for science and science policy. Friday, August 8, 2008. The Double-Bind of the Incompetent. As Bertrand Russell once put it, the trouble is that "the stupid are cocksure.". It strikes us as hubris, or even dishonesty. As scientists we see this behavior not merely as being incorrect but as a manifestation of a moral failing. Perhaps that is so and perhaps it is not; regardless, a study. Which may be behind a pay wall) for more. Posted by B. Kalafut. We have foreground...

http://stochasticgain.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
A tube-mounted, ill-behaved amplifier for science and science policy. Wednesday, July 9, 2008. A serious deficiency in the introductory physics syllabus. With one lecture left in my non-calculus "College Physics" summer class, I gave the students a choice of covering oscillatory motion and sound or free energy with two applications to biological physics. The vote was unanimously for the latter. To my surprise, their textbook (the latest edition of Sears and Zemansky's College Physics. Free energy is perh...

Stochastic Gain Medium: April 2009

A tube-mounted, ill-behaved amplifier for science and science policy. Monday, April 6, 2009. As cladistics, facilitated by genetic comparisons and molecular-clock modeling, has become the dominant taxonomic method, the phylogenetic tree diagram has become nearly ubiquitous, but little explanation is given for its meaning. Where the branch points occur along one axis has meaning; placement on the other axis is a matter of taste. In a 11 November 2005 short article in Science. Posted by B. Kalafut.
