Bad Science

A concerted attempt to not fill children's heads with nonsense about warm air 'wanting' to rise or any other sillly anthropomorphisms: raindrops are not tear-shaped, etc.. Not terribly exciting page, but very passionate... Bad Astronomy, Bad Meteorology, Bad Chemistry.

Bad Science abounds and comes in many guises. This page sets out to attack only one brand: well understood phenomena which are persistently presented incorrectly by teachers and writers, presumably because they either do not know any better or because they don't really care enough to get it correct.
