06.28 What Science is and What Science Ain't! - by Robert Porter, Ph.D.

Last Thursday evening the 28th, almost 50 people jammed into Coffee Catz living room to see ‘What Science Is and What Science Ain’t’ with Robert Porter.

It was the second Science Buzz Café in a series of twelve. This one turned into a Science Happening that ignited into a charged discussion that spilled out into the street and into the night. Last week, the first science café with Geology Professor Tom Anderson filled us with awe and wonder as he described the incredible geology of our own area. This week Robert Porter started a science conversation that turned the place into a whirlwind of ideas and debates as we began the difficult ascent toward a shared understanding and picture of what science is or is not.
