Thanks for your note. I think arguments on Saidit about 'tone politicing', or 'bad faith' or whatever are really dumb. We have a right to our opinions on a "free speech" website. So, say anything you wish, IMO, as this contributes to the discussions.

I like the way Sagan popularized science for millions (billions?) of people. I've not seen anything that indicates he's a prick, and I had thought I was very familiar with his activities over the past few decades. He has critics in the science community who think he's dumbed-down the subject too much. His warnings are important, however.

Just curious: what did you discover that shows he was a prick?
