The Australian Broadcasting Company offers a story of scandal and waste.
Australia’s prestigious Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial
Research Organisation (“CSIRO”)is under attack for its “shameful waste
of money” for spending $70,000 AUD on a recent conference featuring an
unnamed magician.
One critic, Kelvin Thompson, said the organization is already in the red due to lack of private contributions.
“What the CSIRO in fact needs is not an effort to pull a white rabbit out of a hat,” he said.
We looked for some clue as to the magician’s identity but came up empty. Maybe that’s for the best.
