RE: An Example Of Boring STEM Content: A Potato Lightbulb
I really enjoy comments on my posts as well...
Did you know potatoes are in the deadly nightshade family?
Yes i read the whole post. Not crappy, compared to a photograph and a sentence.

Did you know you can graft a potato plant onto a tomato plant? As they are both in the deadly nightshade family, the plant is called a pomato or something at that point... potatoes in the ground tomatoes up top.
The photograph has more value than anything in this post. :P It's at least unique.
I totally disagree with dismissing a picture as crappy because it maybe lacked letters or other paraphernalia going on about it. Personally, I saw a carefully composed image and one of a subject that's unique. The one line sentence even gave it a lot of context. More important is that it wasn't burdened with the pretense of an author cajoling us to accept it as an outstanding scientific literature or even a Pulitzer piece. Totally my opinion.
It was intended to be what it was. A cool rainbow that I saw when walking home. The rainbow made me smile so I shared it. Does a post like that deserve the votes it got? No probably not. However it deserves more votes then the text above about the potato battery. So Id say we are on the same page of opinions.
There's value in information, especially if you were looking for something quirky...
I didn't know that you could graft them, but it doesn't surprise me.
I'd be interested to have your view on a particular fable; what the moral of it is.. What it means to you.
