has no scientific education whatsoever.

Nor did their favourite novelist, science fiction writer and
meditationist Michael Crichton but that didn't stop him being on
Inhofe's panel.

You left a lot out there comrade Fran.
I wonder why???

Here, let me fill in the deliberate gaps ...

Sounds like a pretty clever chappie to me!!

About Michael Crichton



He sounds like a bona fide nut case:

In 2006, New Republic columnist Michael Crowley authored a critical
profile of author Michael Crichton. Shortly thereafter, Crowley
noticed a strong resemblance between himself and the character “Mick
Crowley” in Crichton’s latest novel, Next. In addition to having
nearly identical names, both Crowleys are graduates of Yale University
and political journalists in Washington, D.C. In the novel, Mick
Crowley’s appearance is brief but notable. He is a pedophile on trial
for sodomizing a two-year-old child and, Crichton writes, his “penis
was small.” Crichton [had] apparently resorted to employing the small
penis rule, a “sly trick” used in publishing to ward off defamation
lawsuits. Assuming no man would come forward claiming to be a
character with a small penis (or would invite such an inquiry), the
scheming author simply depicts his target as less than fully endowed.
The author then defames as he pleases and hopes his subject forgoes
legal action due to the possible embarrassment of coming forward.
Thus, the small penis rule is not really a rule, merely a tactic for
discouraging litigation. In the end, Michael Crowley [was] disinclined
to file suit. Although “grossed out,” Crowley says that he was
“strangely flattered” by his “sliver of literary immortality.”
