UNIT I A Message from Professor Kool Rock This pack of science lessons is written and dedicated tothe forgotten persons called students. That's right. forgotten persons because everybody keeps saying that school shoulA be fun, but nobody does anything about it. Well,this pack of lessonsisdifferent. becauseitgoes easy on the sciencefacts by throwing in some fiction, humor, and cartoons. Don't let this mixtureshake your tree. because whether you are an A. B. or C student or just a friendly guest you will be able to separate the facts from the fiction. There is always a small, vicious group of persons who are "agin"book-learning and who 'like to bum books. Mese are the folks that say "O.K, it's different but who needs it?" yell, bool- burning 4mart alecks, let me tell you who needs it. Everybody needs it! The building industry is the largest single odustryin the Lnited States and employs mor,.! persons than any other.The Building Industry involves the mining. manufacturing, and processing of every product underthe sun. AdverdsMg. product sales. real estate, manufacturing. distribution, transportation.and you name it depend directly or indirectly on the building industry. Thus, yourchances of being employed directly or indirectly in the building industry areexcellent. So the folks that knock it lack some smarts. What's the largest single investment that you will probably make in yourlifetime?A heap of metalwith four on the floor? Wrong. You can snap up a carby trading a few seashells. bottle caps. or a used guitar. Your very own pad willprobably sta:t at S30.000 and by the time you reach the last lesson. inflation may change it to $40.000. Suppose vou never buy, build, or live in J house or apartmert.but you prefer caves can you still use the sciencelessons? Yup, you will still mxd science to heat your cave. supply power for your dectric guitar. provide lights so you won't step on asnake, and even pump water.Ever if you don't drink water. you will need at least afewdropsto unglue your eyelids so you can dodge thebat!.. Yousavthat you're stillnot convinced? Well, read the lessons anyway_ How can you intelligently hatesomething you don't really know about? There is nothing worse than a person who hatessomething without a good cause. Remember thateverybody today needs a cause. So if you ain": got good cause, use this handy package. (P.S. You r-.!ally didn't expect a pack of lessons oncave-building did ya?)
