Radiolab Saturday
by Greg on May.02, 2009, under Science Life
It’s not often that scientists are thought of as investigators or detectives in the public’s eye, but they really are the worthy heirs to Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes. Logic, the reasoning of deduction and induction, hypothesis, experimentation, one could argue that scientists are more investigator than a reporter or a law enforcer. Radiolab has an episode titled detective stories that chronicles interesting stories of investigation. Last Radiolab Saturday, i posted one segment on garbage and how burrowing through it shows us how messy the facts of history actually are. This week, it is the surreal detective story of titled goat on a cow. It really has to be heard to be believed.
