CSIRO Apologizes to Young Girl for Inability to Find Mythical Dragons
87 years ago in 1926, Australia founded the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) tasked with the mission to conduct scientific research at the federal level. Since that time, the organization has made breakthroughs in research from a wide range of studies including WI-FI technology, Atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), and the development of Linola. Those are just a few of the breakthroughs.

However, the venerable entity was apparently touched by one of its major shortcomings after a letter from a little girl by the name of Sophie. She wrote her letter addressing her request to a “Lovely Scientist” requesting she make her a winged pet of her very own. Little Sophie promised to feed it regularly and play with it upon returning home from school. She was flexible as to the sex of the creature and explained that if it turned out to be a female, she would name it “Toothless” after the dragon in the book series “How to Train Your Dragon”. If it were male, she’d name it Stuart after her daddy.

Well how would anyone respond to such a sweet and innocent request? CSIRO posted a message on its blog admitting they have indeed missed the mark and failed to search the mythical dragon much less harvest its eggs. They apologized to the entire nation for their oversight these many years.
