News You Can Bruise for 2009 October 1

When we were walking around Cambridge Sumana mentioned a story she'd read in school as a kid, which (as she discovered tonight) turned out to be a kids' adaptation of this story: Turtle Eggs for Agassiz, published in 1910. The madcap adventure of a man trying to get some fresh turtle eggs to Louis Agassiz's house for dissection. Definitely worth reading.
