Commons versus the Lords of science!!!

[hallenrm]

Sometimes I really wonder "what is the role of any individual in this large enterprise called 'science'" ? Is it just to be a consumer of its goods, just as in the market.

How does a non scientist participate in this adventure, or is he only an audience, just as that of a tv show or cinema?

Well first thing's first
Have a good time. Lots of fun.
Lots of fun yields lots of free thoughts-
Lots of epiphonys. Cha Ching

Science is so much!
I tweak with sound, and music
like a scientist
just in a very
minor, casual manner.

Maybe you can be your own scientist
run off into the forest
and study bugs!

Learn for yourself! Just learn things you love to learn about.

What do you love to learn?

Of course a 'commoner' has a place in Science!

Matter of fact, without a steady supply of 'commoners', Science will soon grind to a halt!

It's called a 'test subject'!!!

Oh!! Thanks a lot Orbsyci

But this is not what I meant,
Where have my words went,

I was thinking of the masses,
of little children,
who learn science by rote,
just to pass an examination or two,
to qualify in those competitive examinations,
Just wondering how would they vote?
