Is This Humor?

Dear Editor,
    Re: "Dissecting the Science of Death" [News, Feb. 24]: Is your humor obvious, subtle, or am I mistaken? You mention the "bug" (love it) experts. And the no less than four additional/different disciplines of "scientists/experts" as state resources claiming their agreement with its "primary experts." A bit much - stretching! Could this be another matter of inadequate defense money/expertise?
