You’re not in control of your decisions. This Nobel Prize winner spent 37+ years proving it. He exposed a psychological flaw in human decision-making. Once you see it, you can’t unsee it. And you'll question every decision you've ever made.
It's so sad to see that people around me have lost the ability to think rationally.
Naturally 1 out of every 6400 hydrogen atoms in water is a deuterium atom. It forms a "heavy water" molecule with a slightly sweet taste and is safe in low amounts, but you will die if more than 50% of your body's H2O is replaced by D2O.

Biologists are discovering a world of beings tinier than viruses that appear to be everywhere – even living inside us. We have no idea what most of them are doing, but they raise profound questions about what life is and how it got started. www.newscientist.com/article/mg26...

Today I read and completed the first chapter of Cosmos by Carl Sagan.The best book I have ever read.I was amazed at how Eratosthenes calculated the circumference of the Earth .I also feel sad about the loss of the greatest library, the Library of Alexandria that once existed on the Earth.
Every kid starts out as a natural-born scientist, and then we beat it out of them. A few trickle through the system with their wonder and enthusiasm for science intact. ~ Carl Sagan
