Wall Street Food Industry Analyst on GMOs and Cancer

  Take a few moments to listen to a Wall Street food industry analyst's and super-mom's views. It could change your life, the lives of your family members, communities and the planet.  

"I can't unlearn this and I don't know what people will say if I try to teach them.  But, I have to try."

"Maybe one person can make a difference."

"As each and every single one of us does one thing; we have the ability to effect remarkable change."

Now, for the 11 year old super-kid's point of view:

I will repeat the words of super-mom from above:

"Maybe one person can make a difference."

"As each and every single one of us does one thing; we have the ability to effect remarkable change."

*Note: The speakers are not mother and son. 

Birke's speech is from 2010, while Robyn's is from 2011.

Convert Plastic into Gasoline, Diesel and Kerosene

Yup...It's real.

I think I might let the news outlets know; they seem to have missed this.

I'd love to know what you think!

Are my geek undies showing?

I found myself applauding at the end of this and was transported to my childhood as I never missed any of the 13 episodes of Cosmos. This mash-up is amazing and gave me special geek-tingles. Carl Sagan and Stephen Hawking in "A Glorious Dawn":

What kind of a geek would I be if I didn't include the lyrics?:

[Sagan]
If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch
You must first invent the universe

Space is filled with a network of wormholes
You might emerge somewhere else in space
Some when-else in time

The sky calls to us
If we do not destroy ourselves
We will one day venture to the stars

A still more glorious dawn awaits
Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise
A morning filled with 400 billion suns
The rising of the milky way

The Cosmos is full beyond measure of elegant truths
Of exquisite interrelationships
Of the awesome machinery of nature

I believe our future depends powerfully
On how well we understand this cosmos
In which we float like a mote of dust
In the morning sky

But the brain does much more than just recollect
It inter-compares, it synthesizes, it analyzes
it generates abstractions

The simplest thought like the concept of the number one
Has an elaborate logical underpinning
The brain has it's own language
For testing the structure and consistency of the world

[Hawking]
For thousands of years
People have wondered about the universe
Did it stretch out forever
Or was there a limit

From the big bang to black holes
From dark matter to a possible big crunch
Our image of the universe today
Is full of strange sounding ideas

[Sagan}
How lucky we are to live in this time
The first moment in human history
When we are in fact visiting other worlds

The surface of the earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean
Recently we've waded a little way out
And the water seems inviting

Emergency Warning for Office Buildings!!!

For all of you who haven't studied physics in the post 9/11 world, it's time to catch up. Everyone in office buildings is at risk!

Do you work in a large office building? Then you should know about this recently discovered flaw in ALL EXISTING building codes and fire regulations that could cause the complete collapse of your office building.  For more information, please e-mail the NIST at wtc@nist.gov.

Amazing Elephant Artist

This elephant was rescued from abusive treatment in Burma and is now recovering and is painting a self-portrait!!! I was stunned to see the dexterity of this huge mammal. If cows could do this, would we still eat them?



The video was posted by Exotic World Gifts who supports, "Starving Elephant Artisans" by selling their paintings so they can continue to have a new life in Thailand.

15 Kilovolts From Water and 4 cans!!!

I really enjoy Walter Lewin's physics lectures and demonstrations, there should be more teachers like him. Here he is creating a battery out of 4 cans and trickling water. He is able create around 15 kV (kilovolt). I had to see this one to believe it. Pretty cool stuff.

You can see some of his lectures on electromagnetism here and find more free science lectures here.
