Are We Alone? - Encore presentation available February 25, 2008: "The End of Food"
Do you find eating tiresome? Is taking time to chew taking too big a bite out of your productivity? Well, you can soon say goodbye to the burden of beefy burgers and chlorophyll-ridden lettuce - you'll be able to pop a pill for all your nutritional needs! As much as you may find this too much to swallow, what we call "food" is changing. Indeed, you might not recognize the dinner of the future if it landed on your plate today. In this hour, a look at high and low-tech visions of dinner time... whether E.T. would ever get a hankering to snack on Homo sapiens... what percentage of a Twinkie is mined... and growing meat in the lab. Plus, food fights of the past and future. Guests: |

• Steve Ettlinger - author of Twinkie Deconstructed: My Journey to Discover How the Ingredients Found in Processed Foods Are Grown, Mined (Yes, Mined), and Manipulated Into What America Eats
• Warren Belasco - Professor of American Studies at the University of Maryland, and author of Meals To Come
• Jason Matheny - Director of New Harvest, a non-profit which funds research on in-vitro meat
• Tori Hoehler - astrobiology researcher at NASA Ames Research Center

Actor and 50's Sci-Fi icon Ben Chapman: October 29, 1928 - February 21, 2008
Ben Chapman who along with Ricou Browning played the Gillman in the 50's science fiction classic "Creature From The Black Lagoon" passed away earlier today in Hawaii.
More details can be found on The-ReelGillman site: http://www.the-reelgillman.com/

It should be noted that Ben played the Gillman in all out of water scenes while Ricou Browning did all the underwater scenes. Ben will be missed. So long Gillman.

News worth reposting:
Are We Alone? - Encore presentation: "Driving Evolution"
We've all descended from a common ancestor, but, as Homo sapiens, we no longer brachiate through trees and have long abandoned our stone tools for iPods. Evolution has shaped us into the big-brained, bipedal, text-messaging specimens we are today. But it didn't happened without a lot of pressure. We'll look at some of the forces that have driven human evolution - from the snake-phobia that sharpened our eyesight, to the anger-management that was a prerequisite for civilization. Also, how your Blackberry may be changing the brains of future generations. And, are we engineering our own successors through robotics?

• Lynne Isbell - anthropologist, University of California, Davis
• Timothy Taylor - archeologist, the University of Bradford in the U.K.
• Nicholas Wade - science writer, New York Times, author of Before the Dawn: Recovering the Lost History of Our Ancestors
