What a cool story! And it's so important to remember that scientists of the past were *not* dumb... at least no more so than we are.

Thanks Theresa! I really like trying to figure out what happened when two articles say the opposite thing. It's like a little puzzle, and sometimes you find nice clean explanations! (of course many times you don't lol) I think I like the feeling of when my brain goes from, "oh no science is unreliable" to "oh I see where the data came from, that makes sense"
