Must must must watch. Perhaps this is what Huckabee’s science standards would be like (h/t to Pharyngula):

    I forwarded the vid to a good friend in grad school (physics major).  Here’s his reply, which put me a little at ease:string theory WILL, in fact, encompass the seemingly mystical realms of "spitty slurpy".  The moon walk, however, is currently beyond the grasp of science.  But we’ll keep trying.

    Physics majors can prove anything.  One of my roommates in college used to constantly tap one of his fingers on a desk while he was studying because in some advanced physics class he learned that there’s an equation that will explain the probability that the molecules in the desk and your finger might one day line up exactly to allow your finger to pass thru the desk without stopping.  He used to tell me whatever he had learned in class that day, and I’d say something in reply like, "Dude, you’re getting ripped off on your tuition…"   :)

    I don’t get it.  He spit and then slurped it back up.  That’s not a miracle.

    I can’t tell if you’re being snarky or don’t get satire. Judging from what I know about you, you do get satire, so I’m goin with the first option.
