Kaku is a charlatan

Gary — 12/18/2004 7:00:00 AM (archived)

Michio Kaku was the main advocate of the political opposition against the Cassini spacecraft over the phoney RTG safety issues. I'm convinced Kaku's motivation against Cassini was to enhance his own public exposure in order to increase sales of his book. IMHO, Kaku is unethical and his books are rubbish.
