I think when we discuss issues of agriculture and business in the world trade meetings, such an issue, which cripples science, can be brought for consideration. I think therefore this fact, that science and its existential problems are not known in the quarters which can make these problems dealt with effectiveness is not very well known. This is another reason why science is not in pretty good shape.

Who needs a Science war.
Call it a spoof, but in the fun of things we have started igniting each other. So its all a fun game. Didn’t I promise so. Its fun, seriously fun. But in modern times its just a phenomena of human tendency. If the internet is not invented and we live nearby we celebrate every leap year by throwing stones at each other. We need a reason for that and in the absence of a reason call it a special reason. Now that internet is invented we can happily do anything we want to without invading anyone’s personal space in a physical way. But we can throw many stones at each other once we know what some one can be ascribed for in his mind.
“Why is there so much bias in the minds of the westerner scientists towards the Indian scientists?”
But this is exactly where I hit my nail. Or I would prefer to. Hasn’t the so called western society been propagating a culture of science whose torch bearers are held with high esteem? And when these torch bearers have shown the path in science, they hardly called upon themselves as great Greek soldiers and great European scientists.
The state of Indian Science.
China is already doing this. Its particle accelerators are hotbeds of science research where people from the globe come like honey-bee come to flowers. China is even planning to establish world’s largest accelerator, bigger than LHC, the biggest and highest energy facility in the world now.
If we think democracy is hindering our strides, we better change to communism, shall we? There are certain aspects where Democracy should have little less calling power, but thats possible on two fronts, 1. we realize that we first need world class thinkers and scientists and technologists 2. we realize that we are in safe hand and we can turn democracy off.
