SCIENCE—Like a bright torch shining into Portland’s anti-fluoride, anti-vaccine, anti-GMO darkness, NPR’s Science Friday comes to town with a live taping focusing on current science—with charming, whip-smart host Ira Flatow welcoming both local experts and an audience Q&A. Behold! Science Wednesday! EH

MUSIC—With notable exceptions (Crimson, Louis XIV, the county that contains Seattle), people and things with “King” in their names generally don’t deserve it. That rule, however, does not apply to King Buzzo (AKA Roger Osborne), a founding member of the Melvins. Buzzo and his big-ass hair are punk royalty, and you should genuflect accordingly. (Even though it’ll be an acoustic show.) DCT

Fluoridation Opposition is Scientific, Respectable & Growing
Over 4,600 professionals (including 366 dentists and 568 MD’s) urge that fluoridation be stopped because science shows fluoridation is ineffective and harmful. See statement: http://www.fluoridealert.org/researchers/p…
Nobel Prize winner in Medicine, Dr. Arvid Carlsson, says, “Fluoridation is against all principles of modern pharmacology. It’s really obsolete.”
Don’t get in the way of propagandizing, nyscof.
