- When I was back in eighth grade, my science teacher,
Mr. Malone, a brittle old man with a shock of white hair and a stern classroom
demeanor, but a sharp sense of humor, had made a banner that ran across
the top of the blackboard. It read: "If you can't measure it, it doesn't
exist."

- I used to ponder at that admonition every morning back
in 1962, and its message did sink in, as I think it did in the minds of
every student in the class who wasn't just falling asleep in the back of
the room, or idly daydreaming. Students in that class went on to become
brain surgeons, genetic engineers, writers, computer scientists, horticulturalists
and lawyers. I don't think too many of us are conspiracy theorists.
