I like science. I like what science has given us and continues to give us. Science is under attack though, maybe because it's telling us things we don't want to hear (eg global warming) or maybe it's because scientists investigate things that appear ludicrous.

As an example, I bet you didn't know what causes the sound of a dripping tap.

In their defense, curiousity is what science is all about and it often leads to breakthroughs in unrelated fields (although even I struggle to think how this particular knowledge could help).

(I still like science)
