Scientists Agree...

Scientists Agree...







In going about our everyday lives, all of us use science every day, and we never even know it. Science has much to teach us about the world we live in and how to master it. For instance:



•Blue light travels faster than any other color light.


•Vegans and vegetarians regularly eat flesh from animals that die of natural causes since that meat is technically considered "carrion."

•The inside of an ordinary 40-watt lightbulb can become hotter than the surface of the sun.

•So-called "steam locomotives" are actually fuelled by coal or other combustible materials in a small, controlled nuclear reaction.

•Ink from a computer printer, if ingested, is more toxic than mercury.

•30 is technically the lowest prime number.

•Albinos are actually black--it is the refraction of sunlight that makes them "appear" white or colorless.

•Dogs have eight more senses than human beings.
