“…I know I’m going on and on and I’ll shut up.” Yes, please do.
I’m not sure what’s going on these last few days, but Astroengine has been filled with pseudo-science, media insanity and conspiracy theories. I suspect we’re seeing the first few cases of the Stupid pandemic (I’m joking, we all know you can’t “catch” Stupid — but can somebody please make sure Jenny McCarthy gets the memo this time?).
I’m beginning to miss real science. I promise I’ll resume normal service, after you’ve seen this video:
It looks like there are some basic educational failings, or some very strong Creationist teachings in Arizona.

Thank you to @MrGuilt for pointing me to this little piece of craziness.
