FUKUYAMA SHOWS HIS COLORS: I’ve been reading Bob Zubrin’s book Entering Space: Creating a Spacefaring Civilization and here’s a great quote:

In 1997, Scientific American writer James Horgan published a more interesting best-seller entitled The End of Science, in which he held that all the really big discoveries to be made in science already have been made, and thus the enterprise of scientific discovery must soon grind to a halt. (The day after I finished reading Horgan’s book in February 1998, a group of astronomers announced that they had found a fifth fundamental force in nature.) In his book, Horgan interviewed Fukuyama and asked him what he thought of those who doubt we have reached the end of human history. “They must be space travel buffs,” Fukuyama replied in derision. Indeed.

Yes, that’s our Frank.
