[Jawlist] Weekly Science Report 7-23-21

[Steve Detwiler]

*Weekly Science Report*

*July 23, 2021*



*“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired
signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not
fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.  This world in arms is not
spending money alone.  It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius
of its scientists, the hopes of its children.  This is not a way of life at
all in any true sense.  Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on
a cross of iron.”*

Dwight D. Eisenhower
