And its shaped by the world that we live in and this marketplace. We expect that we should get everything as cheaply as possible and as efficiently as possibly. And to some extent those are tenets of capitalism. But they havent always been tenets of american political economy. There have been moments in our past, in our notsodistant past where we said, okay, its not necessarily the most important thing to get things as cheaply as

My background is as a journalist long time and not as a science journalist. I was a Foreign Correspondent for the Philadelphia Inquirer and the washington post. What i learned was being in Foreign Countries is a good way of learning to speak to scientists.
