What is really happening is that the religious right, as usual, wants to force their will upon the world. It's been happening since Christianity spawned the Crusades and as long as we as a species cling to our monotheistic tenets then it will never ever stop. Anyone with an iota of intelligence understands that a mandated moment of silence is a moment when the religionist can say to the rest of the world, "Look at me. I'm praying to my god. Maybe you should be praying also.

I never knew that Edo period natural history art used such similar styles as the European 19th century naturalists (Haeckel, etc.). Thanks for opening my eyes to a school that was completely unknown to me!

Hey Marco, looks like you captured it first.
When they talked about this squid, then let on that this squid was now pickled in the blue vat behind them, it reminded me of going to the Forestry Building in Portland when I was a kid, and seeing the exhibits of the oldest trees they'd CUT DOWN.
