the program is "think," and the host is krys boyd; she's the best interviewer I've heard: intelligent, fully prepared. natarajan has a new book out on astronomy, largely about dark matter and dark energy.

the program is rebroadcast in the evening, after 9:00.

I was too busy watching the canine sorority's delightful conversation to spend the time to do any of that. the sisters were generous too; they even pretended to engage in wailing and gnashing of teeth to keep us all entertained!

yes, there was a person of that name here, but I haven't seen any indication that she is the same person as prof. natarajan of yale.

I listened to some of the interview. natarajan was quite interesting; she has fairly broad interests, and talked briefly about mutiple universes.

still, I am skeptical of these physicists; they arrogantly think they know a lot, ie. that they know a lot about the beginning, what exists, and what will be, but they're in the dark about large chunks of reality.

you said it right -- "...in the dark about large chunks of reality."

haha the irony of 2 of 3 out to lunch characters on SUCH saying someone else is in the dark about reality is deelicious. today must be international irony day, first the cop who fatally shot someone at a gun ownership demo and now this
