House Passes A Bill That Restricts Scientists From Advising The EPA
House Passes A Bill That Restricts Scientists From Advising The EPA

Two college students have their most important final exam next week...
But they've chosen to spend the week partying instead. So, in their drunken stupour, after realising how badly they messed up, they beg their professor to give them an extra day for the exam. Even though sceptical, they told him that they had a flat tire on the way to university and couldn't reach class in time.
So he agreed.
The two students, dedicated to getting a good score on their exam after a week of partying, spend the entire day cramming down every last possible detail of their class. When they come in the next day, the professor tells them that they'll need to take the exam in separate classrooms. Perplexed by this, the students nevertheless agree and sit down, each in their own classroom.
"For 5 points, describe the structure of the atom and all its properties." was the first question. The students, after seeing this, regain their confidence and think that this exam will be a piece of cake. After they write out all they know about the atom, they turn the page.
"For 95 points, tell me which tire it was."
