  4. not convinced on Get the Family Dog Cloned · · Score: 1

    how do you know that the dog you get back from this company will be the same as your old dog. it could just be a dog they found in a kennel which looks exactly the same as your dog. your be so emotionally involved that you wont notice.

  6. goldfish on Earthquake In China · · Score: 2, Informative

    so what's the big deal about the goldfish? i was expecting it to fall out or somehow do something very exciting. all i can see is that it wobbled around a bit.

  7. its all wrong on Science Documentaries for Youngsters? · · Score: 1

    i hate the way science is taught to children. its all so wrong, for example, in primary school your taught that everything is made up of round spheres called atoms. in year 9 your told that its wrong and these spheres are actually made up of a small sphere with electrons orbiting them in concentric circles. alevel your again told that its wrong and the nucleus is made up of even small particles, and these electrons are in fact in energy levels and dont follow concentric circle orbits. get to undergraduate physics - hang on thats all wrong again, the electrons are fermions and follow exchange symmetry and theres wave functions. the nucleus isent a sphere and the electrons are everywhere in space due to proberbilitys. and i havent even started on graduate physics and superstrings. my advice - tell your child the truth from the beginning - it will confuse them a lot but they will thank you in the future :)
