Actually, I haven't.
I've seen it once before in a library,
but I never actually read it...

I always figured it'd be out of my league of understanding.
>_<

I am however reading my mom's old college textbook on physical anthropology c:

I need to check those out.
I had an opportunity to see Stephan Hawking do a lecture, but I couldn't get a "ticket" in. *sigh*

Does anyone remember the "Magic School Bus" books? I read, like, ALL of those when I was a kid. It got me really interested in science.

When I was little, I LOVED "Magic School Bus". I even had a computer game, and it was all science-y. You got to go to space, and go somewhere else where you looked at rocks, and did tests on them to find out what kind of rock it was...
