Quote of the Day - 5 March 2004

Quote:

In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,' and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time something like that happened in politics or religion.

Carl Sagan (1934 - 1996)
US astronomer & popular scientist

Ah... how well I remember staying up late as a kid to watch his TV show Cosmos. What a trip for a young mind...
