The Legionnaires’ outbreak in Philly 50 years ago led to months of mystery — and gave the disease its name
For more than half a year, local and federal health authorities were unable to determine what had killed American Legion members who attended a convention at the Bellevue-Stratford Hotel.

VIDEO: The American Denial of Global Warming - Perspectives on Ocean Science
Polls show that between one-third and one-half of Americans still believe that there is "no solid" evidence of global warming, or that if warming is happening it can be attributed to natural variability. Others believe that scientists are still debating the point. Join scientist and renowned historian Naomi Oreskes as she describes her investigation into the reasons for such widespread mistrust and misunderstanding of scientific consensus and probes the history of organized campaigns designed to create public doubt and confusion about science.
