"I sometimes think of scientific skepticism as a method of waste
reduction and improved efficiency. As an individual, a family, a
society, a government, and indeed a civilization, we are best served if
our time and energy were spent in an efficient manner pursuing
appropriate goals. It pains me, for example, to think of researchers who
spend an entire career pursuing a fiction. When you think about how
much time and money is wasted because of ideology, stubbornness, or
simple ignorance it can be depressing."
