And now we're full-circle. A pity for the public (if a blessing for the
science-communication industry) that it takes campaigns, appeals, training
courses, plentiful prodding and, of course, public funding before you can
get a few of the scientists to imagine they could use a plausible excuse for
whatever it is they're up to in the lab?
