Disclaimer, Disclaimer, Disclaimer!!!

This program does not eject those who belong.
Not even for singing a song that isn’t to our liking.
If one’s behavior is consistent
with the rules of the community,
the ideas should be given time
and consideration.
Science doesn’t kick ideas out.
Evidence does that…
or, biased individuals threatened by contradiction.
Stay for all the ideas here on
This Week in Science!
