I fear my daughter may have chosen a profession that will no longer be politically correct. All those years of education squandered on science. And to think I once thought you were a good influence on her. You will be proud to know you raised her well - she did not give us the BC Tour at the Smithsonian's Museum of Natural History. Maybe I should ask her for a do-over.
I soooo want to be there when she gives that tour!!
Since she has been to the Mecca (bad analogy???) for Young Earthers, Kentucky's Creation Museum, she should be well versed.
Once she finishes with this pesky dissertation thing, maybe she can get to work on that "why aren't there any human and dinosaur skeletons together" question (And then she can move back home and live in your basement since she'll be unemployable).
On second thought, there are probably plenty o' places that would hire her....
And yet, the saddest statement for me from the whole piece:
"Fossils are boring because they're a pile of dead things."
I KNOW!! Who thinks like that??? ;-)
I liked the question, "How do they date the fossil?" by the layer in which they find the fossil, and the fossil by the layer, and the layer by the fossil. Nevermind the explanation right next to that display....
Come on Yorke, that would require reading Do you really expect the parents to READ (let alone think) for themselves??!
It's them I blame. The kids don't know any better, and are likely rarely if ever in the company of anyone who holds different opinions since they're all home schooled. That said...I hope to never get any of them in my classes...course, it's doubtful they'd try for a Catholic school I guess...
