D-Lib Magazine March 2003 Volume 9 Number 3 http://www.dlib.org/dlib/march03/03featured-collection.html ISSN 1082-9873 Strange Science: The Rocky Road to Modern Paleontology and Biology By Bonita Wilson Corporation for National Research Initiatives
Once in a while, the collection or web site selected for D-Lib Magazine's "Featured Collection" is one that I find to be a bit quirky and fun. Perhaps because there are so many serious matters dominating the news as the March 2003 issue of D-Lib goes to press, I found myself attracted to just such a small, personal, and amusing site to feature this month. Strange Science presents a primarily light-hearted look at some of the stumbles along the path to discovery in natural science. As the site's creator, Michon Scott, describes it, Strange Science is "a collection of misguided attempts to explain natural history, including honest and dishonest mistakes about dinosaurs, mammals, sea monsters, and prehistoric beasts." =========================================== Enjoy! -- Han Tacoma ~ Artificial Intelligence is better than none! ~ _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
