Scientists on Colbert Report: See a real Nobel Prize flipped like a coin

As I recently reported [1], Republican attacks on science have led pissed off scientists, including some fourteen Nobel Prize winners, to form an organization called "Scientists and Engineers for America (SEA) [2]."

SEA has gotten off to a good start, though it remains to be seen if they can get going fast enough to affect this year's elections. But SEA has already done what has become a nearly necessary ritual for politics rgese days: gone on the Colbert Report.

If you want to see a Nobel Prize winning scientist talk with Colbert (and sit there watching him flip nis Nobel Prize like a coin), here's the footage:


It is good to see my fellow scientists finally realizing the threat right wing fanaticism poses in America today. I joined SEA two weeks ago and have already had some email discussions with them regarding Congressional races. Come on and support science but joining Scientists and Engineers for America [3].
