Uh, I don't know man.  You really think science making penis's obsolete is a good thing?

If they find a way to use cancer against Alzheimer's and Alzheimer's against AIDS, it's gonna be the most morbid version of rock paper cancer.

The University of Notre Dame is developing paint that harnesses solar energy.

If they come out with different colors, they can market it to students who paint themselves for football games and cut stadium energy costs in half.

Gigantic stick insects thought extinct for 80 years are found on an incredibly remote island: http://www.npr.org/blogs/krulwich/2012/02/24/147367644/six-legged-giant-finds-secret-hideaway-hides-for-80-years?sc=fb&cc=fp

Evidently no one likes a quitter
or an old punk's bitterness
So I'm waiting for a tap on the shoulder
Because we're all getting older, not better
And the laughs are no longer with us

The AV Club did an interview with Morgan Freeman about his role as narrator on the Science Channel series Through the Wormhole.

It's pretty awesome.

Quote from: Morgan Freeman
I don’t have the science mind. I don’t have the kind of mind that can deal with science. Physics, however, is not what I would call one of your life sciences, like chemistry or biology are. Or archaeology. But physics? Physics is more of a… [Hesitates.] Can I say “fuck”?
