Science and Politics

I just read an interesting article on the presidential debates that have been going on and the topics they focus on or do not focus on. I too believe that a candidates views on science and technology need to be known. There needs to be more focus on this and related topics in these debates. The future of the USA heavily depends on the pursuit of science and the development of new technologies, and I think a candidates stance on these matters should weigh heavily on his/her selection.

Size doesn't quite matter....


Wow, it really is amazing how organisms can adapt over time. This 44 year old Frenchman has less than half a normal sized brain due to fluid build up in his head (large dark areas in left images), yet he can function pretty close to normal with only a slightly lower than normal intelligence. A normal brain is shown in comparison on the right.

Another sweet electric car!

This electric car and the technology it utilizes is crazy sweet! The only issue is, you'll have to move to England to get one. Here it is the Lightning GT.

What else is Bush going to do to our country?

Why is Bush pushing for this useless missile defense system in European countries? Hasn't he done enough damage to US international relations? Now he has plans to place missile sites and radar centers in the Czech Republic and Poland for a defense system that has yet to be proven to work! Thank you President Bush for now starting a second Cold War with Russia. As one very concerned citizen, please just stop what your doing and give up!

Wow!!!

This is a very intriguing perspective on our world and a unifying theory of everything. It seems a bit far fetched but it does make you think.
