BA-BAM! Chris Mooney’s on My Facebook!

My nefarious plot for global domination of the InterWebbies continues!

Behold! I have added Chris Mooney (pronounced (deep voice) “MOOOOOOOOOOO-NEYYYYY!!!!”) to my Facebook profile of doom!

The Republican War on Science

Author of The Republican War on Science, the most important book yet published in promoting public awareness of the Bush administration’s pathological interference in scientific research and communication, and Storm World, which has had significant repercussions in the blog world for teaching Global Warming activists what they can and cannot say factually regarding Climate Change’s influence on the strength and frequency of hurricanes.

Mooney gives me a +2 bonus when trying to persuade the politically-minded to support science! Or rather, he would give me a +2 if real life were like a Dungeons & Dragons role-playing-type game where, instead of fighting orcs, you argued with self-righteous nimrods. That’s because Mooney is part of the Speaking Science 2.0 lecture series, working with Matthew Nisbet to teach the scientifically literate how to frame their debate points surrounding scientific issues (Be Positive, Keep It Simple).

Each scientist who accepts me as a “friend” on a social networking site unwittingly becomes part of my maleficent machinations. Soon I shall unleash the insidious Phase II of my evil mad-scientist scheming type things!

Chris Mooney shall make a fine addition to my collection.

BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!!
