How to get kids to think critically | Bad Astronomy | Discover Magazine:

Watch below or stream the entire sequence, in order, on the SE2 Playlist: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLF0CC6A5CB5710759

It was snowing a few minutes ago..

Obligatory snow video... Gresham, Oregon.

This is why I am shooting so many of these little videos these days, practice with the new camera... I had my finger on one of the microphones this time. Better on a little snow video than on something really dramatic and exciting.
