News For Nerds - The Pinocchio Effect and more

pinocchio

Scientists are convinced that the secret to spotting a lie has nothing to do with the eyes. It’s all in the nose. And bad news for all of you chronic liars: there’s nothing you can do to cover it up. I’ve got details for you.

Plus, this week we present the story of one tough little arachnid, who was able to manage flights around the world and even 100 days in outer space . . . but was done in by four days in Washington, D.C.  No surprise.

And I have links to other fun stories, including:

The oldest dinosaur
Extroverted gorillas versus shy gorillas
And (Jane’s favorite), the swimming robot!

It’s all waiting for you right this way, so click to your heart’s content. Thanks for gettin’ your nerd on!
