This podcast features our interview with Crystal-Yates-White, organizer of Denver Skepticamp. News items include stem cells, incarcerated psychics, religion surveys and more. We also go off topic to mention a new Rational Alchemy obsession, roller derby. Correction: Avogadro's Number day is June 2nd, not June 3rd. I wasn't thinking.

No Libel Laws in Science

The use of the English libel laws to silence critical discussion of medical practice and scientific evidence discourages debate, denies the public access to the full picture and encourages use of the courts to silence critics. The British Chiropractic Association has sued Simon Singh for libel. The scientific community would have preferred that it had defended its position about chiropractic through an open discussion in the medical literature or mainstream media.
