High School Science FTW!

I really love being able to post stuff like this, it makes being a blogger worthwhile. Knowing that an 18 year old student can perform this level of scientific scrutiny just mends so many wounds of scientific ignorance that I often see run rampant. Jessica Terry, this Klingon hails you, "QAPLAH!"

NBC: "When doctors didn't give a Washington state high school student the answers she wanted, she took matters into her own hands.

Eighteen-year-old Jessica Terry, brought slides of her own intestinal tissue into her AP science class and correctly diagnosed herself with Crohn's disease."

Intelligent Design...OWNED.

To paraphrase the context for this post, it was found recently in a rather drab "teach both sides/academic freedom/no science should be excluded" post regarding evolution/ID. The following was a response to intelligent design and 'I'm saying "no Scientific studies should be excluded "'.

Nuggin: "And we're saying "No scientific studies have ever been excluded." The problem here is that what you consider a "scientific study" the rest of the world considers "a letter to the editor". Science is rigorous. It has standards. If you don't achieve those standards you aren't doing science."
