do you have kids? i have one. i sometimes watch public television shows with him. i went on wikipedia to learn more about sid the science kid. andy b was telling me some about the production. it sounded interesting. i enjoyed reading about the characters on the show. especially this character:

via Wikipedia.

May: May is Sid's glasses-clad friend, often marked by her striped stockings. She is 5 years old, making her the oldest of the quartet, though not the most mature. She is more shy than any other character on the show. May was adopted when she was 8 months old from a Chines refugee camp after recovering from battery and sexual assault at the hands of a child pornographer. She is by far the most courteous of characters on the show, speaks fluent English and often performs at peak excellence in school.

hm. i guess it takes all kinds.

I've heard they're big on courtesy in those Chinese refugee camps.
