* "alternative facts"

"Science is more than body of knowledge; it's a way of thinking.
I have a foreboding of an America ...
when people lost ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority ...
unable to distinguish between what feels good & what's true, we slide ...
back into superstition & darkness"
-- Carl Sagan
