"The universe is full of magical things, patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper." -- Eden Phillpotts.
GrrlScientist is an evolutionary biologist, ornithologist, aviculturist, birder and freelance science and nature writer. A native of the Pacific Northwest, she relocated from Seattle to NYC with her parrots after earning a BS in Microbiology (emphasis in Virology) and PhD in Zoology (Ornithology) from the University of Washington. In NYC, she was the Chapman Postdoctoral Fellow at the American Museum of Natural History for two years, pursuing part of her "dream" research project by reconstructing a molecular phylogeny of the parrots of the South Pacific islands. GrrlScientist has written a blog about science since 4 August 2004 (the early years are archived here) and was part of the original invited group of 14 "SciBlings" -- her only claim to fame. If you appreciate GrrlScientist's writing, please help her pay her living expenses by clicking on the Paypal button below and by voting for her to be the official blogger on a month long adventure in Antarctica. If you read an essay that you especially enjoyed, please nominate it for OpenLab2009.

If only it really was a spoof.

You know what they should come out with? Ribbons that you can stick on other people's cars (particularly the SUVs and Hummers) that say something like "I keep the war going" or "I'm melting icecaps." Remember the stickers you could get to put on sexist subway ads that said "This demeans women" or the ones for stop signs to make the sign read "Stop racism?" It could be like that for people's cars. There's a Hummer across from where I work that I would love to slap one of those on!

I love that parody, and I wish I had the MP3 for it. But I don't know how to rip a Flash video...
