Goodman: we need to be educating people about human variation at a much younger age. He suggests middle school as a perfect time for this. #AAA2024Tampa

The figure is from "The Circulation of the Oceans" by Walter Munk. I found it in my guide to Oceans by Karl K. Turekian, 1968.

🤷 I strive to be good at experimenting. Observation just comes naturally. I could never not observe. It's like breathing for me. But I also know someone who breathes experimentation. And many who are successful without a gift for either... arguably more successful by today's metrics 😂

Thankfully, video of the operation, complete with 1950's science narrator voice-over, is available at this link, so you can watch the PARABEAVERS in all their Technicolor glory:

I definitely do not have the gift for experimentation. But I work very hard to be a good experimenter, and I am mentored by people with the gift for experimentation.
