I prefer to deal with science where "the rubber meets the road" as it were. Maybe there is a practicality to this, but I don't keep my self up at night thinking about it. Sometimes I just scratch my head ad go back to looking at rocks. I'll concern myself with finding new sources of drinking water and telling people why they shouldn't build on a certain hill if they don't want a downhill mobile home. Maybe I'll also get the chance to tell people what the environment was in a certain area millions of years ago. i.e. you won't find me in Starbucks debating the universes mysteries with art and english majors.
