Subject: [PSCI-COM] Your Friday afternoon fun from I'm a Scientist, Get me out of Here!

Hi All,

If you want to be amused, intrigued or just plain impressed by science, scientists, teenagers (and of course the lovely Wellcome Trust for funding us) then you could do worse than while away a bit of your Friday afternoon browsing the awesome questions and answers in our event so far.

There's so many great ones that any 'highlights' are purely arbitrary, but some of our faves:-

do your robots ever rebel and take over the world? http://ias.im/35.256
do you have any sheep? http://ias.im/31.330
if u cud dig a hole from england to australia,if u then jumped into the hole would you die and would you stop in the middle,would it be zero gravity like the moon? http://ias.im/31.698
What do you think about the theory of supersymmetry, and is it likely that dark matter is a sparticle? http://ias.im/33.1078
Have any of your experiments gone wrong, that you desperatly wanted to go right? http://ias.im/31.475
Why have you entered this contest? http://ias.im/35.459
What, in your opinion is the meaning of life? http://ias.im/35.1010

You can also search all the questions on the site from the search box on every page, if there's a topic you were interested in questions on.

The event's been going great so far - with 2,000 students registered and 23,000 visits to the site already. And of course it's on for another week! Tune in next Friday to see who's won in each zone.

Cheers,

Sophia
