Science!

Here's three science related articles I've read in the past 24 hours that are worth a read.

- How what you smell can affect what you see. Learned about "binocular rivalry" and the fact that in addition to "right brain / left brain" there is also a corresponding "right nostril / left nostril".

- Cicadas' cycles control their predators. Very interesting but article raised more questions than it answered (but doesn't all good science do that?).

- Why taking antibiotics is like swallowing a hand-grenade.  Interesting history of antibiotics as well.
