Teaching Opportunity for Columbus Day

From The View:
WHOOPI GOLDBERG: Is the world flat?
SHERRI SHEPHERD: Is the world flat? (laughter)
GOLDBERG: Yes.
SHEPHERD: …I Don’t know.
GOLDBERG: What do you think?
SHEPHERD: I… I never thought about it, Whoopi. Is the world flat? I never thought about it.
Ships sailing toward the horizon seem to sink,
But come back later, perfectly sound.
That the sort of thing that makes me think
This world might really be round.
