I thought the article was interesting in the sense that it shows that at least some scientists are trying to study/test/examine a concept that we had already observed.

However, on the other hand, it makes me think "Uhh...what took you so damn long?"

Quote"It's an amazing challenge to constantly break out the Nietzschean hammer and destroy your world view and belief system and evaluate others," Hoffman said.

If this is true then it explains why most of planet earth are complete fucking idiots. Not that its an amazing challenge (it isn't even slightly difficult) but I could see how a lot of talking monkeys could convince themselves it is :lulz:
