How come everytime you see a piece of foam rubber there’s always a hair sticking out of it?
———- from Megan M. of Stockbridge, MA
Well, the hairs you see apparently imbedded in the foam rubber are actually growing from the rubber itself. Any resemblance these hairs may have to yours is the result of a chameleon-like mimicry on the part of the foam. This is only the first step in a vast plot to imitate and eventually conquer the human race. Those foolish enough to sleep on a foam mattress will eventually wake one morning to find themselves sleeping on top of themselves…or so it will seem for a few moments until the foam vice tightens. So the next time you find a hair in a piece of foam, don’t take any chances. Call the police and tell ’em Dr. Science sent ya!
