In 2019, I interviewed Joel Salatin, advocate of alternate farming. Our conversation prompted me to predict for the decade 2020 – 2029 that laws would be overturned making local food production and distribution a rising economic force. I didn’t know then that COVID was about to speed that process up 10X. Here’s what’s happened since…

There’s a category of control systems engineering called “Stochastic Control Systems” which is basically “How do you get the autopilot to get the airplane to Boston, even though there’s 114MPH headwind from the northeast, rainstorms and rising masses of air over Ohio.” The models for this have been very well developed since roughly the 1930s….

Collateral Damage by Mickie Kennedy   Is it too late at 50 years of age to plant roots and form the kind of friendships that desire an audience with a dying man, waiting hours by a bed until he wakes and eats a bit of vanilla pudding? I suspect it’s not but life remains a…

Here we illustrate the difference between algorithms and conscious beings playing a simple game on the iPhone: If you ONLY get to use autofill, how long can you keep the game going? Pretty long, so long as you make choices. On the other hand, if you just pick choices at random, or let the phone…

Addy Pross is a Chemist at Ben Gurion University in Israel. He’s author of “What is Life: How Chemistry Becomes Biology” by Oxford University Press. Here we enjoyed a great conversation about his specialty, Systems Chemistry, a new branch of science that enables us to build complex networks of chemical reactions like those found inside of…

Lynn Margulis, who died in 2012, was a piercing luminary in the history of evolutionary theory. She overturned the money changer’s tables in the temple of science and infuriated a lot of people. But history has continued to vindicate her. In this interview, she and Conner explore a very different way of thinking about life…

This is Perry Marshall and I’m long overdue to mention a really great book that came out not too long ago. It’s called The Works of His Hands by Sy Garte.  Sy is a molecular biologist that I met at some science meetings in the last few years. Probably a couple years ago he sent…

Michael Behe infuriated traditional Darwinists with his concept of irreducible complexity more than 20 years ago. He argues instead for Intelligent Design. But what does ID really mean? Is it a puff of smoke? A perfectly executed pool shot at the start of the Big Bang? External intervention at various points along the way? Intrinsic…
