LETTER: California Student Liked Kinchen’s Review of ‘The Politically Incorrect Guide to Science’
 
Dear Editor: I am a college student in California. I read your article reviewing a book titled, "The Politically Incorrect Guide to Science," and found it fascinating. It's about time the light of truth shined down on the politically-polarizing issue of science and exposed those scientists for what they truly are: purveyors of socialism and anti-Americanism. I was always taught that the diversity of life that I see around me could be attributed to non-random environmentally-induced selection acting on naturally occurring variations within populations, in addition to the phenomena of drift, founders effect, exaptation, historical contingency, and phyletic inertia. Who knew that the entire field oould deny him the Nobel prize, nay, every Nobel prize for the next 100 years for such a discovery. Also, every biology-related Nobel prize ever given would have to be returned as the research was forged. Congratulations and thank you for discovering this whistle-blower's world-shattering piece of literature. His denial of an AIDS epidemic in Africa is priceless. Maybe his next book could be "The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Holocaust;" he could could get some good primary-source information Mel Gibson's dad and the current president of Iran.
