Weird Science

By kate on July 15th, 2005

The folks at Weird Genius Real Science are really trying to get the word out about their second annual Science Fair tomorrow night (click the link for more details).
 
Steve and I went last year, and it was a blast (figuratively and literally). It’s a science fair for bizarre, eccentric, and artistic adults. I highly recommend it.
 
EDITED TO ADD: Earlier I posted a web link to it, but that was apparently for last year’s event. Here’s the info I was emailed about this year’s fair:
