This paragraph stuck our for me: "Scientists for Science have a range of opinions on how risk is best assessed. However, maintaining dogmatic positions serves no good purpose; only by engaging in open constructive debate can we learn from one another's experience. Most importantly, we are united as experts committed to ensuring public health is not compromised and the reputation of science in general, and microbiology in particular, is defended."

List of names is good. If we could get Harald zur Hausen, Charlie Rice, Harold Varmus and Mike Bishop it would beawesome.

I don't think getting Baltimore and Alice Huang to sign our letter is out of the question. Worth offering since DB may want to correct the record and if he turns it down that's instructive. Back to the paper - since Jesse Bloom trainedwith DB I think it's even money that DB was offered a spot on BS and turned that down.

As for the paper itself and other JB-DB papers on H1N1- seriously WTF - a blueprint for making drug-resistant viruses and not a peep about DURC.
