More heresy

Just back from London, where I got a chance to go and see Richard Bean's The Heretic. Thanks to everyone who helped this to happen.

It is astonishing how much science has been stuffed into the show, which is a brilliant comedy in its own right. It's an extraordinary achievement.  And how about this for a quote:

KEVIN: Do these tree ring guys make a habit of pasting in the instrument record on the end of a proxy series?

DIANE: You're not seriously telling me that you did not know that Professor?

KEVIN: No! Fucking no! They can't do that! That's like a vegetarian getting his blood sugar up with a bacon sandwich. Why don't I know this?
