Not arguing Nye's intellect or general awesomeness. I'll even ad that as an educator-type he possesses great skill at conveying information that many highly educated and credentialed scientists lack... I can't imagine that he comes across as anything but informed and thoughtful.
My questioning of Nye's qualifications is not at all about knowledge and all about the gravitas an advanced degree and a body of published research conveys.
Didn't know that Dr. Jesus personally requested Nye.

Of course, I didn't mean to come across as aggressive in any way. I can easily see how one would think that Bill Nye is an add choice if a group of scientists got together and decided Nye was the person to go forward, it would be a little bit unusual.
Although, as I have heard in jest (or perhaps not in jest), maybe they would have selected Bill Nye, because he has experience talking to and educating children. Lol.
