“by the way”!  “By the WAAAAY”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I paid 26 bucks for a book by the wrong Sean Carroll.  I think it even showed up in “other books by Sean Carroll” in Amazon.  Not “other books by people named Sean Carroll.” 

 

Well, at least I don’t have to hate the evodevo Sean Carroll. 

 

Thank you, Russ.  I was already conceiving of a book review titled something like, A Bridge Too Far, about how Wisconsin Sean Carroll should confine himself to writing books he knows something about.

I agree with you about gravity also. I'm surprised he said that. By the way, there are two Sean Carrolls. The evoDevo guy is a biologist at Wisconsin. The Entropy book guy is a physicist at Caltech.
