@OtherSociology your lack of impartiality makes me ashamed to be a scientist. -

@Real_Carl_Brand My scientific analysis of gender inequity makes you "ashamed of being a scientist. " Critical thinking is part of science. -

@gavinj1999
@globalbabel Hunt always a member of Royal Society. He stepped down from Awards committee and has not been reinstated. No change -
@madamscientist @gavinj1999@globalbabel clearly most important: framing it so credit can be taken for having made it happen.#aboutLMmainly -
@wff1022 @gavinj1999@globalbabel LM and followers lack understanding how a scientific society works and that committees are dime a dozen. -
@madamscientist @gavinj1999@globalbabel I could well imagine. And in addition a desire to know. Pesky details!
