I have been searching the internet for quite a while looking for good resources that I can use as a (hopefully) soon-to-be teacher, and while there are many out there, I really enjoyed yours, and only wish that you would post more frequently.

I find both your perspective and suggested links to be extremely invaluable. Although my emphasis in my past (i.e., pre-teacher) life has always been on the humanities and politics, I found your focus and emphasis on science to be refreshing, and, in my case, most needed.

I also liked your use of the "Tree of Life" video, and can very easily see myself incorporating it into a lesson plan. In this day and age, when evolution, Darwinism, environmental science, etc., are so much under attack, it is comforting and encouraging to find a blog that is so firmly rooted in common sense.

Keep up the good work.
