 _________________________________________
/ With the news that Nancy Reagan has     \
| referred to an astrologer when planning |
| her husband's schedule, and reports of  |
| Californians evacuating Los Angeles on  |
| the strength of a prediction from a     |
| sixteenth-century physician and         |
| astrologer Michel de Notredame, the     |
| image of the U.S. as a scientific and   |
| technological nation has taking a bit   |
| of a battering lately. Sadly, such      |
| happenings cannot be dismissed as       |
| passing fancies. They are               |
| manifestations of a well-established    |
| "anti-science" tendency in the U.S.     |
| which, ultimately, could threaten the   |
| country's position as a technological   |
| power. . . . The manifest widespread    |
| desire to reject rationality and        |
| substitute a series of quasirandom      |
| beliefs in order to understand the      |
| universe does not augur well for a      |
| nation deeply concerned about its       |
| ability to compete with its industrial  |
| equals. To the degree that it reflects  |
| the thinking of a significant section   |
| of the public, this point of view       |
| encourages ignorance of and, indeed,    |
| contempt for science and for rational   |
| methods of approaching truth. . . . It  |
| is becoming clear that if the U.S. does |
| not pick itself up soon and devote some |
| effort to educating the young           |
| effectively, its hope of maintaining a  |
| semblance of leadership in the world    |
| may rest, paradoxically, with a new     |
| wave of technically interested and      |
| trained immigrants who do not suffer    |
| from the anti-science disease rampant   |
| in an apparently decaying society.      |
|                                         |

\ Scientist," May 19, 1988                /
