I love Science.

I love Science. I don’t just love Science, I *fucking* love it. Maybe I’ll do a post on the Science sticks someday.

There’s a webcomic I particularly like, called XKCD.  It’s Science-y, Math-y, geek humor. Perfect for me.

One of the best is the following comic, good old #397. I love it because Feynman (one of the most significant scientific figures of the 20th century) shows up *as a zombie*, to defend the Mythbusters (who are awesome). On top of it, he makes a great point about Science, and Science in culture.

That, and I love the phrase “drag humanity out of the unscientific darkness”. Science!

Do judge a book by its blank pages

Zombie Feynman got me reading about Feynman, and I came across a great page discussing Feynman’s involvement with the textbook industry. Although it’s funny at times, it’s fairly sad that this is actually the back end of our education system.
