"We're really trying to get the publishers to do something," he said. "They get people to check for political correctness; … they try to get in as much cultural diversity as possible. … They just don't seem to understand what science is about."

Ah.. the great paradox of the American education system.  So focused on diversity, they forget what they were teaching in the first place.

I am amazed!
Something was actually  researched for two years in North Carolina and it only cost $64,000?

Those idiots don't even know how to milk a grant program, it should have taken 5 years and cost a half million minimum.

When did they put this thing in here and WTF is it for?

I'm still trying to work out why a photo of Linda Rondstat would be in a science textbook in the first place.

Oh and funked, how about adding to the list the following:

Tycho Brahe
Steen Willadsen
Valdemar Poulsen
Hans Christian Orsted

Something was actually researched for two years in North Carolina and it only cost $64,000?

Driving to work one morning, I heard this news bulletin: "After 5 years and 3 million dollars, UCLA has concluded a study that shows clearcutting a hillside leads to an increase in the chance of a landslide on that hill."

LOL, I would have told them that AKDjV for only 1 million.  

Here's the future headline of the next UCLA research projects results:  "After 3 years and $10 million dollars, researchers have concluded that it takes 3 years to spend $10 million dollars."

Followed by a 4 year, $3.98 research project funded by the University of Deleware to figure out how UCLA did it.
Results: Inconclusive.
