I had been blogging about ScienceDebate2008, but I am taking a break from blogging. I'm about to post a notice to that effect on my blog, so I'm glad you picked up the torch on this.
Your comments about the current administration are well taken. I have two book reviews that relate to that specifically. The reviews include a bit of critique as well as praise, but I certainly consider the books an important contribution to the science policy discussion.
