April 2008 Rap-Up
The weather broke,
and it reached 50.
This month’s science,
was pretty nifty.
We learned happiness
comes with age,
and beekeeping is
all the rage.
Gene therapy helped
a blind man see.
And we lost the brain
behind chaos theory.
Bush released his
climate change plans,
and scientists found poop
from a prehistoric man.
Archeologists battled over
Egyptian history,
while activists tried to save
the last marsh tacky.
A science festival
made Cambridge a happening place,
and artists used computer models
to visualize space.
There’s toxins in plastics,
and infection in wheat,
and nanotechnology
could have cancer beat.
E. Coli are all unique,
said Carl Zimmer,
and the narwhal is becoming
one endangered swimmer.
So as the spring colors
begins to show,
Science Metropolis
will continue to grow.
