I heard an interview with the author this morning on KSFO. The book sounds like it could be a handy resource for worry-worts. His story about how the “ozone hole” bugaboo got started was pretty funny.
Short version: An assistant to Jack Anderson didn’t understand that the McMurdoe scientists were pulling his leg.
I am the person who was interviewed. Thank you for taking time to listen. Please get the book, and visit my blog: http://www.thedeadhand.com.
