I can't promise actually cool science stuff pulled from the news because all I've been doing for the past week is watching the History Channel. This series on the seven deadly sins is pretty cool. Actually, the HBO "John Adams" mini-series is pretty cool, too. Anyway—
A Snickers bar from 50 feet away is NOT a lethal weapon. At least not because of peanut allergies — James Bond might be able to make it happen.
Also, Saturn's rings are going invisible. We're hitting a ring-plane crossing, which happens about every 15 years. Sept. 4, 2009 is the big day, so get your telescopes ready!
And finally, third-hand smoke is bad. That's the smell of cigarettes that lingers on your clothes after smoking or hanging out with a smoker for a day. In other news, smokers killed the Pope and JFK and Jesus and the dinosaurs and all those baby seals whose deaths we blamed on the Canadians wielding clubs.

One response to “Semi-cool science stuff (Joe)”
Thanks for the semi-cool science stuff. Actually, the disappearing Saturn rings are just “cool.”
James Bond could have done without his gun. Instead he could have smoked a pack before each lethal mission and stuffed his pocket with peanuts.
