Yoy forgot to mention the other amazing big discovery, they found out it was impossible to hear a pterosaur urinate. You see the "p" is silent.
This is now the equivalent of "first" for io9 comments.
One GMO project is working on a blight-resistant American chestnut tree. This is working to counter the impact of a non-GMO human unintended consequence, since the blight was introduced from Asia. I hope the public will accept blight-resistant GMO chestnut trees.
Wow. I had to look that up. The bat thing led me to a forum post where people said things like "Why would they [secular scientists] define bats as mammals, when the Bible clearly calls them birds, unless it's to undermine God?" I can't tell if that's sarcasm or not...but judging by the people I knew way back when I…

When I was a YEC, I didn't feel like I was going through mental gymnastics; I just never met anyone who could point out the mathematical impossibilities of the young earth model.

They discovered a Dyson sphere... and the whole focus of the episode was Scotty.
The Doomsday Machine, Star Trek TOS (2/6). This episode was based on the Fred Saberhagen Berserker stories. It would make a great series.
It's really, really, really bothering me that the people who keep suggesting the Mirror Universe keep using Star Trek: Enterprise AND NOT THE ORIGINAL! DAMN KIDS!
"The war is going very badly for the Federation, far worse than is generally known. Starfleet Command believes that defeat is inevitable. Within six months, we may have no choice but to surrender."
Community's Remedial Chaos Theory for sure.
That is her non-union European equivalent.
"No! Only Ma-Koy may touch the wife of the Teer!"
