![[Item Permalink]](http://radio.weblogs.com/0112083/images/ur_bullet.gif){kind=small} An opinion piece in Helsingin Sanomat -- Comment()
Today my opinion piece on the role of science in society appeared in the newspaper Helsingin Sanomat. The title was changed but the text mostly as it was - however, I had a phone discussion with an editor who wanted some scientific terms changed to easier ones. In retrospect, it is interesting to note that the text also contains some advanced economic terms which the editor accepted as they were.
