A "sciency" question that you always wanted to ask. ASK AWAY...

What role do mosquitoes play in nature? Why do we need them?
How do planes fly?
Why do mice and monkeys get used in research? Especially, mice?
How do ATMs work?
What is Intelligent Quotient exactly? How is it measured and how credible is this measurement to measure someone's intelligent? And what is the logical explanation behind people who have low IQ but excel in music etc?
Exploding Stars, Expanding Universes, Stemming Mortality etc.
Welcome to the world of writing science. From supernovae to stem cells, from human-like robots to nano organs, from encrypting to molecular computers - the beat is vast and varied. All you need is a healthy dose of curiosity, a stubborn, ask-as-many-questions-as-it-takes attitude and maybe, your grandma's story-telling gene.
Take the plunge. Read as many stories as you can find with some science in them and post your opinions, comments and feedback here. Let us build a group... and a skill - talking science!
