Thank you kindly, CarrieT. I was not at all familiar with this aspect of the essay lol. Yes, and part of the Goal of this Contest is to have fun and get inspired to get involved in science education. In all spaces/places i've read somewhere.
To address Basudeba:
You acccusations are groundless. In the words of author Georgina Parry,
Dear Tommy ,
Please be reassured that I am not offended by anything that you have said on this thread. You have a very informal and open style of communication and I have taken your messages to be humorous and well intended. I am delighted that you consider my essay worth re-reading and to be placed along with with Julian Barbour and Dean Rickles in having that honour. I really liked both of their essays.
It is also flattering to think that I have been at all inspirational. I think it is great that you entered your essay, what ever the final outcome. Don't put your self down. Your ideas have been read by far more people than if you hadn't entered and you will get further opportunities to fine tune them in the future. Everyone who has entered should be congratulating themselves for making a positive effort, having a go.Its better than not writing an essay and then just criticizing those that have.
Kind regards, Georgina.
Until you address this blatant distortion of Truth in these threads, any objections your group makes about any essay is moot.
Just my opinoun, but you need to kick some members out and find a post-doc friend to help shape you consensi.
Good day, and thax for a third read of my Essay...
