Just talking with a friend who had to correct a schoolteacher who was telling their class that the sun revolves around the earth. This happened in 2004.

MULTIPLE people have confidently told me that the queen bee is the only female bee, all the worker bees are male, and that they know this because they were taught it in school.
During college, I read at a poetry slam with some peers. One of them wrote about "green matter". She meant "gray matter". We talked later, corrected her, and found out that one of her school teachers taught her class that brains were green.
I used to tutor, and have heard some very odd things.
I'm a HS science teacher. I once had a colleague who refused to teach about geologic history or dinosaurs, because they believed the Earth was only 6000 years old.
