I probably wouldn't have thought twice about it if someone from Discovery Channel fished here for stories. It's their job to provide content for their shows.
But for Dr. Bob to do it implies endorsement of the idea. Even encouragement. Since I like to think he has some concern for our best interests, I was wondering what he thought the benefit was to whoever it was he was asking to volunteer. Since I'm sure the benefit can't be "to be on the Discovery Channel". Unless that is a benefit in and of itself?
I must confess it feels to me sort of like asking monkeys to volunteer to display themselves at the zoo. So I'm wondering if I'm missing something.
