Myth Busters

[bigrun]

Please take this important poll...

Last week, we told you that teachers in Louisiana were trying to use the supposed existence of the Loch Ness Monster to promote Creationism and undermine Darwin’s theory of evolution. It turns out, however, that the Loch Ness Monster isn’t the only mythical creature making the news these days.

No, the mythical creatures we’re talking about aren’t moderate Republicans. We’re talking about mermaids. In response to inquiries following a show on the Discovery Channel’s Animal Planet, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration posted an article on its educational website, Ocean Facts, that used “publicly available sources” (like, say, Google?) to assure concerned citizens that mermaids aren’t real.

One of the myths.
