if you're trying to choose between two theories and one gives you an excuse for being lazy, the other one is probably right.

What is called for is an exquisite balance between two conflicting needs: the most skeptical scrutiny of all hypotheses that are served up to us and at the same time a great openness to new ideas.

If you are only skeptical, ... you never learn anything new. ... On the other hand, if you are open to the point of gullibility ..., then you cannot distinguish the useful ideas from the worthless ones.

If all ideas have equal validity then you are lost, because then, it seems to me, no ideas have any validity at all.
— Carl Sagan

[Richard Feynman's] motivation was not so much to understand the world as it was to find new ideas to explain. The act of discovery was not complete for him until he had taught it to someone else.

Neil deGrasse-Tyson – The Universe is in Us...
This kind of heartfelt, contagious enthusiasm in science educators is so incredibly inspirational. He's like a modern Carl Sagan, or a non-confrontational Richard Dawkins.

The Monitor is a video blog by Scientific American magazine, and part of their 60 Second Science site.
As the name implies, it's science news for people with short attention spans – and especially web geeks: Among the science news, this first episode features a Family Guy clip, ytmnd.com, and Facebook. The best part, though? How they're using the Mac desktop as a presentation tool.

Sit down before facts like a child, and be prepared to give up every preconceived notion, follow humbly wherever and to whatever abysses Nature leads, or you shall learn nothing.
