The quote at the end is perfect. Be excited when you are wrong because it's information.
Isaac Asimov used to say that the real sound of scientific progress wasn't "Eureka!", but rather, "Hmm. That's funny."
"Replicate the circumstances, then replicate the results."
This is what conspiracy theorists don't get. The world's scientists are not skeptical of your claims that water has secret spiritual memory because they hate you, they are skeptical because the claim you make, if it were true, would be so important and world-changing that they want to be absolutely sure of it before they endorse it.
The difference is that, to a scientist, "this would be amazing if it were true" is not a good reason to believe it anyway
Love this show
One of my most favorite shows growing up.
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
