Science Update

Couple of things. One, naturally occuring nuclear reactors. Two, this cool article about 13 things humans are still baffled by. Pretty amazing stuff all around. I had no idea mother nature produced her own reactors here on earth two billion years ago. I thought it was a completely human endeavor.

And as for the 13 things, I think they should add Bush's reasoning for pulling funding for Amtrak. I mean, sure, life on Mars is intriguing and ensuring the Alpha constant is truly constant is important for science. But understanding why the goverment on the whole, since the 70s, has refused to fund trains as it does highways and airlines, well, I think solving that conundrum would help a lot of people out.
