Kindergarten Science
Just thought I’d link to this very funny post on Cosmic Variance. She’s talking about discussions about science with kindergarten kids, and how their minds are time-shared between the rational and the not-so-much. Priceless quotes from the latter slice…could have came straight from the mouth of Jake the Snake!

Spectacular Neutrino Results from Fermilab

I’m always excited to hear news from my old haunt Fermilab. The latest is a terrific new result on neutrinos from the MiniBooNE experiment. There’s a terrific explanation on Cosmic Variance by Heather Ray. The new results move us closer to ruling out neutrino oscillation as the cause of the very strange results from LSND, a prior neutrino experiment which appeared to poke holes in the standard model.
