    Syaban Shadikillah - Indonesian Campaigner for Science and Freedom of Expression

    Syban has fled persecution in Indonesia for peaceful expression of his beliefs.  Seeking safe haven in Australia he has, very disappointingly, continued to experience discrimination with the Queensland Road safety authority ruling his drivers licence invalid due to the fact his photo features him wearing a spaghetti colander on his head.  He says this is an item of religious head wear and he should be treated equally to other wearers of religious garments in drivers licence photos.

    Saving the Western Edge

    Under the weight of population growth, cities are spilling their borders. In Canberra, that means spawl, placing pressure on precious habitats. In these interviews we learned that the city now covers an area equivalent to greater London, but with a fraction of the population. It begs the question of how that affects the environment and the liveability of Canberra. The Conservation Council organised this protest to pressure the ACT government into drawing boundary that protects areas to the west of the city. They are hosting a documentary on this issue, 12 May at the National Film and Sound Archive.  https://conservationcouncil.org.au/event/premiere-screening-on-the-edge/

    What makes a radio station?

    Did you know Fuzzy Logic is one of Australia's longest running science radio shows? Its heritage is a bit misty, but we do know that 2XX was broadcasting The Science Program in May 1981. In this interview, one of the earliest station technicians, Kimmo Vennon describes those early days. Recorded by Rod from the tower in Canberra where 2XX first broadcast in 1976. The building nearby housing communications equipment was destroyed by probable arson in 1988. That tower dates back to 1928, making it a historical artefact, especially significant because it's a rare example of a free-standing radio tower. As Kimmo tells us, there's a surprising amount going on under the ground at this site.

    Remember this

    Is your memory like something that can recorded and retrieved on magnetic tape? No. We can discard that as an extremely poor analogy. Our guest on Fuzzy Logic today is an expert on how memories are laid down and recalled. It's a subtle, complex thing with many facets that we don't entirely understand. For one thing, there are different types of memory, and it's far from an immutable record. It has links to autism and PTSD, among other things. We discuss the recent pronouncements from the USA about Tylenol 'causing' autism. Official Fuzzy Logic policy states that we support critical thinking, which means we strongly reject assertions made without evidence, especially where they relate to public health. Dr Shaam Al Abed is a Postdoctoral Fellow from the Eccles Institute of Neuroscience, at the ANU. Interview by Tara and Rod

    We love snakes

    Snakes are among the creatures most despised in all creation. Unfairly, we suggest. When treated with respect, a snake should inspire wonder more than fear. With some justification, people are afraid of their venom which can be lethal. But if you look at it from the snake's point of view, it's not in their interest to bite a human. They just want to go and do their own thing, unmolested. Emma Carlson is a registered snake catcher. In a surprise visit, she brought Cooper the rough-tailed python into the studio and after our interview, we were able to handle him. Cooper then slithered across the audio console without interfering with any vital buttons. Cooper, we can assure you, has the most appealing face like a big cheerful puppy. Interview by Rod, who did not require medical attention as a result.
