Dear Marc,

 

What else needs to be said at this point relative to Jeff?  I have read his work and agree with many of his viewpoints — not all, but that is the beauty of an alleged open society, free expression.  I don't appreciate what's happening in the U.S. these days.  That is to say, finger pointing and suspicion!

 

I think that a thoughtful publication like Physics Today does a terrible injustice not only to itself, but to all of its readers.  Bottom line, no politics please...NOT with my baby — Physics.

 

Regards Marc,
