When I was 6, I won my elementary school science fair by attempting to
grow bean sprouts out of an empty milk carton. Hardly groundbreaking
stuff, but it sure was fun. Interestingly, my experiment was not a
success. Sadly, nothing sprouted. I suspect now that I was awarded first
prize because the judges could see my crushing disappointment, and
noticed from my copious notes that I had tried really hard to do it all
by myself (unlike some of the other fancier projects that had parents'
fingerprints all over them).
