Fourth-grader Julisa Castillo has been named the junior division champion for the 2010 National Science Fair for her project, "Disproving Global Warming."  The project beat 50,000 other submission from across the US, but the clincher is that the panel of Judges included Al Gore.  The NSF panel also included 14 recipients of the President's National Medal of Science and four former astronauts.

Castillo walked away with a free ride to space camp, a trophy, and a special place in our hearts for daring to challenge the consensus on Global Warming.

She serves as the most positive example of a balanced education that we've run into this year.  Given both sides of the debate, Castillo was able to draw her own conclusions on the topic.  It is this type of reward that motives us and the Independent Women's Forum to continue pushing for a Balanced Education for Everyone, and bring these types of lessons to schools around the nation.

  Fake news is better than no news I guess. Good try though http://timpanogos.wordpress.com/2010/06/07/beeville-fourth-grader-disproves-global-warming/

And here... we.... go.

Does this mean that Tim Ball can remain in hiding now that a suitable successor for him has been found?

are you saying the story is fake or that man made global warming is fake?

it has to be true, I mean the energy lobby would never stoop as low as to try to maniplulate public opinion this way would they?

No info on the NSF running a Science Fair. http://www.nsf.gov/index.jsp

Oh, and there is always a little investigative reporting to help.

Quote from the above blog.
"Update: Sarah Taylor of the Beeville Picayune informs me via email that

    I did speak with a representative from NSF who confirmed that they do not have a National Science Fair, no one there had ever seen the letter, and I also called space camp, who told me that they did not receive anything from NSF either."

Just shows how crooked both sides of most political debates are...

Busted.  Somehow, I doubt that this will get the same sort of coverage though.
