"Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, 'In this world, Elwood, you must be'– she always called me Elwood – 'In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant.' Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me."
—James Stewart as Elwood P. Dowd

The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not 'Eureka!' ('I found it!') but rather 'hmm, that's funny...'
I believe in evidence. I believe in observation, measurement, and reasoning, confirmed by independent observers. I'll believe anything, no matter how wild and ridiculous, if there is evidence for it. The wilder and more ridiculous something is, however, the firmer and more solid the evidence will have to be. Self-education is, I firmly believe, the only kind of education there is. There is no belief, however foolish, that will not gather its faithful adherents who will defend it to the death. All from Isaac Asimov, 1920 - 1992 www.qotd.org
