    Neat!

    Progress in treatment of spine injuries
    Scientists have taken a major step towards repairing severed spinal cords after discovering a way to make sure nerves "rewire" themselves correctly.

    Back and neck injuries often result in paralysis because, unlike peripheral nerves, the "wires" of the spinal cord do not naturally mend themselves. Researchers have now shown that if they are attached to the right places the severed wires, or axons, will regenerate.

    Interesting, I had no idea Michael Shermer used to be an evangelical Christian.

    This is kind of neat: VIDEO: How To Disable A Cash For Clunkers Car
    The Cash For Clunkers law requires dealers to destroy the engines of the trade-in vehicle or face a $15,000 penalty. The government's step-by-step instructions as well as graphic video of a Volvo in seemingly great condition being destroyed below.

    There were numerous suggestions given to the Department of Transportation for how to destroy a car turned in so the engine never pollutes again. Our favorite was "drilling a hole in the engine block" with, we're guessing, a giant diamond-tipped drill. As lovers of cars, the method they decided on feels far more cruel but is probably just as effective.
    from the comments section:
    I hope whomever traded the S80 is proud of their 4-banger communist Camry.
    I would love to study the mind of a person that thinks like that.

    How they scrapped all those vehicles was gigantically retarded. They could of scrapped it for scrap metal and it wouldn't of sucked so bad.

    Government inefficiency at it's best.

    They do actually get scrapped for metal and the amount the scrap goes for gets added onto your voucher amount.
