Is science under attack in America? The writer of Fool Me Twice says yes. As we draw nearer to the 2012 presidential elections, he sees a political spin being put on the issue. The message: conservatives hate science.
The author of Fool Me Twice is an award-winning screenwriter who attended the University of Minnesota at age sixteen and later graduated from Macalester College. His credentials list no formal scientific training, although he and his wife Rebecca (who taught environmental science in the public schools for several years) have developed an environmentally friendly home on their small farm in Minnesota. Otto organized a major science debate during the 2008 presidential elections designed to stimulate discussion of science issues among the candidates. He is also a well-known filmmaker.
