The above linked article tells about several people who volunteered to swallow Lego heads for the study. I think that the swallowing part isn’t so bad, but the searching for the heads afterward wouldn’t be so much fun. Did those searches volunteer, or were they voluntold?

Tis the season for science
I decided to meet a group of women to see the winter exhibit at the Academy of Sciences. I renewed my membership there while I was going, anyhow. I forgot how enjoyable the museum is.
We met up front and wandered over to the 12:00 presentation of the reindeer exhibit. It was very nice, but geared for kids, of course. The presenter asked if we knew any songs that featured a reindeer. My comment of “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer” was not appreciated. I was entertaining myself, as usual, so I didn’t care.
The photos are out of order, but I’ll tell about what I saw. I have wanted to see the exhibit on skin for a while. I finally got to see it on this visit. It was interesting. It talked about all types of skin and what it means.
I managed to get to two planetarium shows, one on the reefs, and one on the universe. I didn’t get motion sickness, surprisingly enough.
I only got to see part of the aquarium, because of time. I will go back and spend a long time in there. It’s relaxing to me, and if I go on a weekday after school, there aren’t many children.
I think some of my photos came through twice.
I went to the rainforest area and watched the butterflies for a while. It was steamy and my sinuses and lungs cleared up a bit.
I need to find time to go back. It was a fun event.
