As a science fanboi I can't help but get into arguments with anti-science type muppets. One of the stooopid coments they often make is that 'if science is so great how come it hasn't cured cancer?' of something to that effect.
Of course the answer is 'it has!' I should know I had bowel cancer eleven years ago, cancer treatment has come a very long way thanks to hard work and the scientific method. Alas we don't always win and there are many forms of cancer that still resist our efforts at treatment but science is getting there. It won't get all the way without a lot of graft and a lot of funding.
Which gets to the point , I'm trying to squeese some money out of you for the charity Cancer Research UK.
In a couple of weeks I'm off to Yorkshire to do the Yorkshire 3 Peaks to raise money for them. A bunch of science teachers and a religous studies teacher (gosh we can get along :twisted: afterall).
I've set up a just giving page ( it goes througth to CRUK not my bank account) if you feel like helping out any donations would be welcome.

Cheers and yeah I know it's a bit spammy, I hope the site admins don't mind.
