On a day when a few hundred students protested at Louisiana’s state capitol in an effort to stave off cuts in funding to public colleges, we have an example of what it is we’re actually funding.

This was uploaded to YouTube on Monday after a rather interesting lecture sesssion by Dr. Bradley Schaeffer, a professor of astronomy and astrophysics at LSU…

Whether Schaeffer’s accusatory global-warming rants have anything to do with astronomy or not, they apparently earn him a salary of $92,000 per year, with three months’ vacation.
