I remember elementary/junior high science fairs. They sucked.

Really. I mean, we all knew that no truly novel question was going to be answered, the teachers often had no clue what the scientific method was, and grades were usually assigned based on how pretty one’s display was.

That being said, some projects are even worse than others. One wonders just what the teachers thought- or how some of these ideas got through in the first place. Though given that one elementary school classmate’s project was called “Astro Ants and Astro Gerbil” and involved sending the family pet up as the payload of a model rocket, I guess I really can’t be too surprised.

  1. I enjoyed “Global Warming – Yeah Right!”, then enjoyed it again when some moron in the comments presented a “fact” in defense of them.

    I thought Al Gore had banished all these people from the earth?

  2. Cool Post! I come round often to check for new interesting stories. Keep up the good work my blogging buddy!
