Old Myths

If people are going to use the "Science says bumblebees can't fly." homily I wish they would at least learn where it came from (early aerodynamicist asked at a dinner party, scribbles a few equations on a napkin, shrugs and says "not offhand") and why it has been outdated for decades (aerodynamicists do research into how insects fly and learn answer; in other words, these days the math shows clearly how they fly).
