. . . just ask Jay.

“Here’s something shocking. According to a study by the National Science Foundation, 70 percent of Americans do not understand science. Here’s the sad part: 30 percent don’t even know what 70 percent means.”

That's funny.

45 percent knew lasers don’t work by focusing sound waves. Lasers use light waves.

Wonder how few know it’s really an acronym:
Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation

48 percent knew it’s not true that the earliest humans lived at the same time as dinosaurs.

A confusing issue. Animals such as alligators, sharks, and cockroaches have survived from the Mesozoic era virtually unchanged, and it is speculated that a marmoset-like ancestor of humankind was around to witness the mass-extinction.

Dinosaurs and humans missed each other by 60 million years. But “we’re interviewing people on the phone who grew up watching ‘Flintstones,’” said Melissa Pollak, senior analyst at the foundation.

Didn’t realize just how stupid the folks at the foundation were either. By this analogy, one of the main reasons to get guns away form private citizens is because those wily rabbits will take them away from hunters and start shooting at them, after all, Bugs has done that more than a couple times to Elmer.
