Ask a Scientist!


I'm reading up on other science disciplines through Science Buzz, a "website of the Science Museum of Minnesota's 'current science' initiative... focused on science in the news, emerging research, and seasonal science."

Their Scientist on the Spot feature invites expert scientists to answer questions about their discipline in an online forum setting. The current scientist featured is a developmental biologist, and there are a TON of archived questions/answers from a number of disciplines ranging from a Bioethics to Eco-friendly Nanotechnology. Go ask (or just read) and learn.

Irony


It just so happens that the most gifted writer in my class is also the one that turned in a book report asserting that global warming is a hoax.

Why this cruel trickery you play on us, fate?

"My sister reproduce babies every two years."

- A kid wrote this in class to practice writing with words we had read in our biology book.
