Romansh: I thought the Grand design was somewhat amusing saying that philosophy is dead and in the following pages followed a philosophical discussion of the philosophy of science.

If you heard him say it is needed, then my bias is gone. Then again he thinks a universe can come from nothing. That is an interesting philosophic thought.
