FYI - A Soul's Weight by Mary Roach

Here's a link to the article by Mary Roach that I referenced in class today about the weight of a soul. http://www.lostmag.com/issue1/soulsweight.php?print=1

It's reprinted in her book, Stiff, pictured here.

I've read some of it. It's pretty entertaining.

Things to do to make blogging easier!

1. First, compose your response in Word or another word processing program. When you're done, click on the word COMMENTS at the bottom of your blog.
2. A new comment window should open up. Copy and paste your response into the response box. Put your 1st name and hour in this box as well.
3. After that, type in the WORD VERIFICATION as it is written. I put this on here to keep the spam off of our website.
4. CHOOOSE AN IDENTITY: If you pick ANONYMOUS, make sure your name is in the response box above. If you pick NAME/URL, put your name and hour in the name box and leave the URL box blank.
5. Then press the orange button, PUBLISH YOUR COMMENTS. You've done it correctly if you see (at the top of the same response window) these words in green letters: "Your comment has been saved and is awaiting blog owner's approval."
- If you don't see these letters, something went wrong. So repeat the process. Thanks for blogging. Mr. W.
