In The 1970s, I Think

In The 1970s, I Think That There Was Probably A Higher Degree Of Respect For Science, Of Hope About The Future, And The Future-oriented Vision.

Well, I Actually Grew Up In The Sixties. I Feel Very Lucky, Actually, That That Was My Slice Of Time That I Was Dealt. Let's Remember That The Real Motivation In The Sixties, And Even In The Fifties, Was The Cold War.

I Found That It Was Easiest To Convey The Information In The Context Of The Life Of The Scientist Or In The Context Of Our Own Personal Experience, And There Was No Idea That Was Too Complicated That Couldn't Be Explained Clearly And Directly.

Science Reserves The Highest Reward For Those Of You Who Disprove Our Most Cherished Beliefs. At Any Moment Someone From Any Walk Of Life Could Come Forward And Be Responsible For A Complete Revision Of Our View Of Everything.

For Most Of The History Of Our Species We Were Helpless To Understand How Nature Works. We Took Every Storm, Drought, Illness And Comet Personally. We Created Myths And Spirits In An Attempt To Explain The Patterns Of Nature.
