We didn't set out to be educators or even scientists and we don't purport that what we do is real science but we're demonstrating a methodology by which one can engage and satisfy your curiosity.

Goethe died in 1832. As you know Goethe was very active in science. In fact he did some very good scientific work in plant morphology and mineralogy. But he was quite bitter at the way in which many scientists refused to grant him a hearing because he was a poet and therefore they felt he couldn't be serious.

Many of the mainstream agricultural scientists especially at the agricultural schools but at all of our major universities are tied into all sorts of contractual relationships and consulting relationships with the life science companies.

The most wonderful discovery made by scientists is science itself.

Scientists worldwide agree that the reduction needed to stabilize the climate is actually more like 80 percent.

Some dreamers demand that scientists only discover things that can be used for good.

Facts are the air of scientists. Without them you can never fly.
