		<description>We had a &quot;Big Red Book of Health&quot; at our house.  I don&#039;t remember it&#039;s real name but I do remember being a little kid and looking at the pictures of the moose. No really, there was a moose picture.  It had a nose and 2 antlers type things. My favorite book at the time was Dr. Seuss&#039;s &quot;Thidwick the big hearted moose&quot; and I swear, it looked like a moose.

Turns out, it was really the uterus, fallopian tubes and overies.

Silly me.</description>

		<description>Those are some nice paintings!

Too bad I strongly disagree with her &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.vesnaonline.com/statement.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;artist&#039;s statement&lt;/a&gt;.  Chemistry (and science in general) is always revealing new questions!  Just last year I was lucky enough to hear both Roald Hoffmann (nobel laureate) and Richard F.W. Bader debate the nature of chemical bonds.  You&#039;d think such a thing would be settled and clearly defined, but since atoms are always vibrating and electron orbitals are modeled as mathematical &quot;clouds&quot; of probability, the question &quot;what is a bond?&quot; is as hard as ever!

If she wants sublime, powerful concepts or &quot;inquisition (sic) and discovery&quot; in chemistry, she just needs to look a little deeper.  But at least she&#039;s finding good inspiration in anatomy.</description>

		<description>I think something got lost in the transition from inkblots to innards.  Perhaps the idea would have worked better if the artist had used just charcoal and an eraser.</description>

		<description>Yup, got my &quot;Gray&#039;s Anatomy&quot;; maybe that&#039;s why I was looking at that artwork thinking &quot;this doesn&#039;t look anything like any human heart - or any other animal&#039;s heart for that matter.&quot;

I always marvel at how Mr. Gray comes back from the dead every now and then to produce a newer edition.
