POPSA biologist reviews an evolution textbook from the ID camp i just don't want stuff that isn't scientifically reasonable being taught in science classes. it's fine for parents to tell them their science teachers are lying to them, but at least give the adults of the future a chance to learn the basics of science instead of stunting them with ID gibberish

POPSIn defence of plastic "New plastics that change from liquid to solid on impact are finding applications in protective clothing and plastic products are being developed using the principles of nature - an area of research called biomimetics. So plastic can be valuable and can be used for functions where it needs to last for a considerable length of time. Concepts of green design should now be applied to all new plastics products so that disposable items, such as plastic packaging and throwaway consumer items, biodegrade and do not fill landfill sites or litter the landscape or seas"

POPSIonised air to power flying saucers They're still testing, and when they discovered the principle, they thought it was anti gravity, but it turned out to be dependent on the earth's magnetic field. Sounds like a far more efficient way of flying than aircraft fuel. They might take a while to learn how to steer it. I wonder how many passengers they'll hold. Spinning around sounds bad for airsickness, and in flight meals.
