Drought conditions in the Oklahoma Panhandle "worse than the Dust Bowl" "This area is starting to look like the Sahara Desert," said Ann Boyd, a 76-year-old rancher in Cimarron County, at the western edge of the Panhandle. "There's just nothing here. Even the weeds are dying. The buffalo grass isn't coming up. There's nothing." http://www.dailykos.com/sto...

Gay couples can't have biological kids together. So if homosexuality is genetic, why hasn't it died out? Answer: because it *INCREASES* the birth rate. http://www.slate.com/id/219... (By the way, a link to another study which shows that the more older brothers a man has, the more likely he is to be gay. But they have to be from the same mother. So that clown-car fundamentalist mother in Arkansas (now pregnant with #18) is probably producing boys' choir members almost exclusively by now...) Been following this particular route to nuclear fusion power since I heard about it a few months ago. A friend just sent me this article about the "Home Depot" Manhattan Project aiming to achieve nucelear fusion power essentially in a garage via the Bussard Polywell device. (Those science fiction fans among you may recognize Bussard's name--he described a spaceship engine which is used in several classic sf novels by Larry Niven: the Bussard ramjet.)

Well, I guess that's one way to interpret it. The creationist cries that nobody's ever observed evolution can now be more affirmatively answered--either scientists have actually observed bacteria gaining new capabilities through a process of mutation and natural selection...or for some reason god wants intestinal bacteria to be able to digest citrate, and does it again anytime scientists want to replicate the miracle. (Aren't we all tired of the same-sex-marriage debate anyway? Time for some good old evolution-vs-mythology fun again!) http://www.newscientist.com...
