He wanted to know about all the machines they left behind on the moon. He said the machines would be lonely.Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12974641097735408376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23363296.post-43414028941027384362010-02-22T22:37:04.025-08:002010-02-22T22:37:04.025-08:00I named my boys Neil and Alan (after the astronaut...I named my boys Neil and Alan (after the astronauts) So I completely understand the whole space fascination thing :-) Love the videos!

I hope your satisfied with yourself. <br /><br />I've never had a big issue with TV being educational. I learned more from PBS and National Geographic specials back in the 70's, when I was a kid, then from school. People get way to caught up in the media and forget the message. I cringe every time I hear parents and teachers going on about so & so kid being a great reader. Not every kid likes to read. So What? Every kid should have useable reading skills, and be able to do long division, and fix a toilet tank, change a car tire, cook a decent dinner etc etc etc. <br /><br />Instead of making sure kids have a rounded skill set and some sort of moral compass so then they can make decisions and make themselves happy, after we're all old and dead, your kids should outlive you, we focus on a few competitive advantage skill sets. Skills that are an advantage for what competitions the parents care about. My kids aren't going to live my life they are going to live their's.<br /><br />Check out the top 10 chemistry and physics videos on Wired Science. I really love the water bubble on the ISS. Little ones won't get some of it, but it's wonderful to see what they do get, and how they will point out the phenomenon in the real world when they see it again. It effects and clarifies their world views. God didn't do it, at least not directly, it was gravity, or heat or what have you.rtb.inkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06991129961063752156noreply@blogger.com
