RE: The elegant nature of science
Narwhal. The Unicorn of the Sea... well, they are just as elusive as the Unicorn but they are very real. They are an endangered species.
![[Image: narwhal2.jpg]](http://media.brainz.org/uploads/2010/03/narwhals/narwhal2.jpg) Here is what they sound like. There is no shame in not knowing. The problem arises when irrational thought and attendant behavior fill the vacuum left by ignorance. ~ Neil deGrasse Tyson Perception is up for grabs, and truth seems to be the one precious thing, that no one wants anyone to find. |

RE: The elegant nature of science
Ok Science lovers... I try to reserve these for special occasions but I don't know, the way things have been going lately, I feel like we need some ... some thing to smile about.
I offer up our beloved... The Great Explainer... Richard P Feynman. Richard, could you tell us about trees? Where did trees come from? No smiling please; this is serious shit.
