Will start to do that, thanks!
> No immediate financial return? I hope you can accept no financial return, period.

- godelski 7y agoI agree, no one should have to work for free. But there are two competing aspects here. Science is about seeking out knowledge and advancing humanity. But unfortunately we need to buy food to eat.
