good next one

what is the tyndall effect (that may be spelled wrong

Discovered by John (james?) Tyndall. Its when you shine a light through a substance and determine if it is a mixture/solution/suspension.

[Babyjustrun]

American history may be confusing.
but at least it's SEMI INTERESTING.
All we've got is the Confederation and French & English people arguing with the Natives and having babies (known as les Métis) and then some big hullabaloo. I don't understand more than half of it, and it's all kind of samey.

I know nothing about canada. I won't lie about that. But American history is just a series of wars and presidents. Its easy to memorize though.

i dont even have too study it its so easy we get lots of fun hw like i have too make business cards for george Washington

[catycatcat4]

next what are the alien and sedition acts and how did they end?

[Babyjustrun]

Mm I suppose.
We don't learn about PM's.
And there weren't that many wars really.

In SS it's use learning about population and culutre in our little corner of the country. It's horribly boring. The other day we did the birth of Fredricton, and it's worse in french.

[Sparx]

next what are the alien and sedition acts and how did they end?

Alien and Sedition acts were to make it harder for illegal persons to become legal. They were ended after an election, because the president in power at time (rep) knew all of the illegals would be the opposing party (dem) so he wanted to prevent them from having the right to vote.

Caty, you're reminding me how long its been since I've been in an american history class.;)

same here. i cant do that, but i have a friend who can name ALL of them in a row...and its funny cuz hes the LAST person youd expect to be able to do that

[TinkerTracy]

You forgot part of the Alien and Sedition acts. The sedition part was that no one could speak out against the government, if they did they could be thrown in jail, so speaking out against the government became a punishable crime.
