Submission + - The Periodic, Somewhat Obligatory "Earth is Flat" Argument Rears It's Head Again

mjjochen writes: A little something to make you smile (or cry). NPR reports on astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson calling out rapper B.o.B. in a twitter (& rap) argument over the status of the earth (are we round or flat?), article can be found here: http://www.npr.org/sections/th.... Rapper B.o.B. references the usual conspiracy theories to support his case in his throw down. Neil deGrasse Tyson responds, actually his nephew responds, on why B.o.B.'s points are not very well-informed: https://soundcloud.com/drtyson.... As Tyson puts it, "Duude — to be clear: Being five centuries regressed in your reasoning doesn't mean we all can't still like your music." Shall we start leaching the four humors from the body again to achieve balance? Hrm.
