Keynote Address "Science - It's Not a Book of Knowledge ... It's a Journey"
National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) National Conference
March 2011, San Francisco, CA
John and I created this video to herald in the new school year. Right now, in this very moment, we wanted to poetically and passionately reaffirm to teachers why they went into teaching, and for the millions of teachers across America, recognize their selfless and noble dedication to lighting the way.

Lyrics—We've Got to be That Light
Every generation must pass on
The wisdom of the previous generations
If we don't keep the next chain connected to the ones that came before it
It's all gone
And who's the glue between those chains?
It's you, it's you
This is a sacred trust
As educators and parents
A sacred trust
We've got to be that light
We've got to be that light
That shining light that guides the way
We've got to be that light
That shining light that guides the way
A classroom is a sacred place
It's not a room in a school
It's any place
Any place where a teacher helps a child
Patiently and artfully
In their journey
In this sacred place
We must nurture the gift of a question
In this sacred place
The teacher lights the way
This is a sacred trust
As educators and parents
A sacred trust
We've got to be that light
We've got to be that light
That shining light that guides the way
We've got to be that light
That shining light that guides the way
We have to ensure
That testing serves education
We have to ensure
That education does not serve testing
We as a nation now
Are teaching to the test
We as a nation now
Are beating all of the joy out of our classrooms
The book of knowledge is not written in our genes
What's written in our genes is the journey
We should be nurturing that gift of a question
We should help frame that pathway to an answer
The teacher's the guide
It's a student's classroom
It's a student's classroom
They are remarkable explorers
This is a sacred trust
As educators and parents
A sacred trust
We've got to be that light
We've got to be that light
That shining light that guides the way
We've got to be that light
That shining light that guides the way

Lyrics:
I found heavy metal when i was just a kid
it grabbed by the nards like no other music did
i became obsessed with it i had to have it faster
more heavy and more brutal
metal was my master
Master
one day I met this dirt bag
loser from the city
started talking metal said my taste was shitty
then he tried to challenge me because I didn't look it
want to know who's really metal?
fucking see you in the pit
you claimin im not metal?
what's this shit your talkin
you say that im not hard enough and i should stick to Dokken
metal's a competition im not hardcore like you
well may you think your metal, im more metal than you
played d&d with dio
im more metal than you
got kicked out of rocking rio
im more metal than you
i licked lemmy's mole
im more metal than you
my cat's name is manowar
im more metal than you
solo
metal is inside me i guess it always will be
liked it since im 10 and now im fucking 40
yeah im still obsessed it, i always want it faster, more evil and more fucked up
will always be master
master
Bater
One day I met this dickhead said that im a poser because i look like a creepy daddy
And there's something in my noser???
he said i wasnt metal guess i could debate it
but we should turn our anger on the assholes that hate it
your telling me your metal but not compared to me
Im slayer and youre PPPP or seven mary three
metals not a competition guess it is for you
you may think your metal but im more metal than you
bruce dickinson is my co-pilot
im more metal than you
liked anvil before the movie
im more metal than you
king diamond sent me a christmas card
im more metal than you
i headbutt sharon osbourne
im more metal than you
more metal than you x3
one of the things i love about being a metal head is when you meet another metal fan
its like meeting a brother or sister you didnt know
but every once in awhile you meet an asshole that challenges you
it becomes whos more metal dude im a grown man
you know what, i could tell you how metal i am but i'd rather have my friends sing it
Mark, tell them how metal i am
he's so fucking metal (Mark O)
thats right im super fucking metal
super fucking metal (Mark O)
solo
you say that im not metal you dont fucking know me
im slayer, venom, mayhem
you're white lion blowin Jovi
if metal is a competition, game over you're through
you thought that you were metal, im more metal than you
i burned a church in norway
im more metal than you
i can name four guys in krokus
im more metal than you
gene simmons was my moyal
im more metal than you

And, if one were a deist, one could certainly "connect" the natural world to a divine source (the "handiwork"of god, as the phrase goes)...I think the problem is (and where non-deists cringe) is the view that we (humans) are specially created by a personal deity, and all the anthropocentric notions that follow from this belief...personally, while I do not recognize (and evidence supporting) a personal, intervening (through prayer) deity/creator...my mind cannot but acknowledge a creative (and destructive) principle at work in the observable universe (sane as in evolutionary processes). This principle may indeed be "self-organizing" (even auto-poetic), but it is nontheless operant every where, and its fundamental nature remains a profound mystery.
