Longnshort,
I believe in REAL science
"Real science" is actually much more mundane than what the over-politicized public thinks.

Scientific research is by nature a very low-yielding practice. Most of it only succeeds in either confirming what we do or don't know, or adding a data point to the pool of quantifiable results.

Here's a wonderful quote on how corrupted the "scientific process" has become:
If you're attracted to ideas that have a good chance at being wrong, and you're motivated to prove them right, and if you have a little wiggle room in how you assemble the evidence, you'll probably succeed in proving wrong theories right.
That's an excerpt from an article in The Atlantic by Dr. John Ioannidis, Nov. 2010
