I have been reading the forum for a while now, and am often amazed at the high standard of debate. I am a simple BSc (1st) in Earth Science and MA in music, so have hesitated to put my oar in up till now.
The one thing that was drummed into me during my studies was honesty ,and I revere the words of Richard Feynmann on this. The search for truth at the heart of science is inspiring in a superficial world.
I hope this isnt too pompous!
