Veronica Said:

Delores Said:

Im writing a research report any ideas?

We Answered:

You can write about anything? Cool. Well, here are some ideas:

1) Ergot poisoning and witch trials. Ergot poisoning is caused by a fungus that affects rye grain. Even cooking it doesn't destroy the hallucinogenic affects of the fungus. Some researchers believe that the witch burnings in Europe as well as the Salem witch trials here were sparked by ergot poisoning that led to hallucinations.

2) Love Canal, the toxic waste dump in upstate New York, that was developed into a residential neighborhood so hazardous that children began dying of various cancers until a mother made it her personal crusade to figure out what was going on.

3) Marie La Veau, the voodoo queen of New Orleans. Or on Santeria, the voodoo tradition that continues in some parts of the Caribbean.

4) The Gullah language, the African-born slaves who developed it, and the Gullah culture which developed along the South Carolina "rice coast."

5) The history and culture of tattooing.

6) DNA testing and the impact it has had on both law enforcement and genealogy research.

7) The 1918 influenza epidemic

8) The 1883 volcanic explosion of Krakatoa, the 120-foot tsunami it created, and its impact on the global climate.

Leslie Said:

do you account for citations in the word count of a research report?

We Answered:

Usually the citations count so try to count it down enough just to be safe. It also depends on the teacher.
