We each exist for but a short time, and in that time explore but a small part of the whole universe

It is said that there's no such thing as a free lunch. But the universe is the ultimate free lunch.

Although quantum mechanics has been around for nearly 70 years, it is still not generally understood or appreciated, even by those that use it to do calculations.

I am discounting the reports of UFOs. Why would they appear only to cranks and weirdos?

I've noticed that even people who believe in fate look both ways before crossing the street.

Maybe I'm being a bit harsh on philosophers, but they have not been very kind to me... I have been variously called nominalist, an instrumentalist, a positivist, a realist, and several other ists. The technique seems refutation by denigration: If you can attach a label to my approach, you don't have to say what is wrong with it... I am sure that Einstein, Heisenberg and Dirac didn't worry about whether they were realists or instrumentalists.

Science will win because it works.
