Meryl's Notes Blog

My sister and I judged a Science Fair at a middle school. I got the exciting (not) category of botany while she did biochem. One of the projects sent her on a wild good chase because a kid quoted a Web site in his research. He claimed — because of the web site — there was a styrofoam plant.

The questionable web site: The History of Styrofoam. Would you believe this site if you were doing research for a science project? This is a more reliable source for styrofoam information.

Moral: Can’t believe everything you read on the Internet, kids.
