While poking around the intertoobs a few days ago, I found a remarkable blog by a young woman. She volunteers at the Denver Museum of Science and Nature, an excellent place where you can learn all about reality (and where "my" black hole show was created). Sadly, this young woman also sees creationists giving tours and lying about said reality. Her blog post on this subject is truly worth reading. It would be considered well-written and thoughtful by anyone. So imagine my surprise when I found out, coincidentally just now, that she's only 14 15. Fourteen! Fifteen! Amazing. I foresee a very bright future ahead of this young lady.
