Got this in an e-mail from a student in my physical science class this morning(they had an assignment to research Archimedes after I had done a density demo.:

I just wanted to pass on this laugh to you....
today I ask my son who is 14 if he ever heard of Archimedes. He said,
"Oh yeah Mom, I can tell you everything you need to know!"
I said,"Really!" I was very excited and I thought to myself," This is awesome."
When I asked what he knew, he responded with,
" He is Merlin's owl on the Sword and the Stone movie."
I just had to laugh and tell him Archimedes was an actual person.
