Re: Common Misconceptions

Not necessarily misconceptions but things I was taught as a kid: Can anyone tell me if they are right or wrong?

1. It is dangerous to bath or take a shower during a thunderstorm.
2. Birds will reject their young if these are touched by humans, for instance if a chick that had fallen out of a nest is replaced.
3. Cooked pork or chicken spoil more readily if left out of the fridge than cooked beef or lamb.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
