HawkeswoodRich HortonTim HunkinKathleen JenningsBachi KarkariaDavid KowalskiEllen KushnerClaude LalumièreEugene LindenGlenda LarkeVal Littlewoodand walls and his computer and books are all interconnected withspider webs ("to control the cockroaches and mosquitos") much to theconsternation of his landlord who has to interview his business clientsin an adjacent office that is now periodically the roaming ground foran every growing population of several species of toxic arachnids.Hawkeswood has even been bitten by them and instead of gettingmedical treatment like any normal case, TJ rushes to his computer torecord the symptoms for another quick paper !And by the way, Hawkeswood does not operate his research on somecushy government grant, nor is he on some permanent universityslush-fund - he is entirely self-funded. Many years ago he was virtuallyon the verge of starvation and I encouraged him to take upenvironmental consulting - and this fortunately has allowed him themoney to travel the world as well as further his researches. His criticthe venerable Dr Glatz would be hard-pressed to live a day byHawkeswood's standards. The Great Glatzby appears to be a primeexample of the modern academic: an undoubtedly competenttechnician, quite happy to toe the party-line, but woefully ignorantabout how science REALLY works - and very quick to be dismissive ofus lesser mortals. As his career has only just started, he is perhaps tooyoung to have been treated to the full force of The Club's peer-reviewcontrol system...but sure as bacteria flourishes under shit, it willhappen to even Sir Richard. And then what will become of him ? Ifancy to think you will never hear a peep from him again, once hefinally understands what really goes on that vicious little pond calledAcademia. Hopefully, he will then be more understandng of scientistslike Hawkeswood.Richard WellsAustralia14 MARCH 2010 5:43 PMPOST A COMMENTL I N K S T O T H I S P O S T :CREATE A LINK
