Sharing this good example of journalism, readers can be informed better, learn something new. And we can even take the good example to teach about bad journalism and how do do better. And so we all
I finally started uploading some of my photos to wikipedia as CC-by-SA. Makes it so much easier to find them again when I need them.
This is a star worm from the family Rhagopthalmidae. It looks like a tiny subway train crawling on the forest floor.
