Just a blog of some guy. Actually, it's a place for me to collect info, and is here more for me than you (so if I happen to insult you with something written here, too damn bad). I don't really have a single thing that I talk about, just whatever happens to catch my attention. Maybe it will be interesting; maybe you'll be bored to death. I just hope that you get some information or enlightenment out of it when you come to visit. So please visit often!
Dr. Phil Plait, The Bad Astronomer, turned me on to these videos. They are mostly aimed at children, but lets face it, a lot of American adults could use these videos as well. Why do you think that I would disparage American adults? Well, considering that apparently any education is "snobbery", I can only imagine the intellectually stunted brains that are out there. I think Isaac Asimov said it better:
“Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through
our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that
democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'”
Anyway, here is the full series of videos that I encourage you to watch and share with those who need it (and to make it easy, I will embed all 6 here for you).
I hope these come in handy for you or others around you.
