<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orfew, post: 3051120, member: 74968&quot;]I remember back in grad school a friend said the following which has stuck with me in all the intervening years &quot;Research is not about finding answers, it is about finding better questions&quot;. The more we know about something, the less sure we become of it. That is, the more we know the more we realize we do not know. Over the years I have become far less certain about what I know, what is known, and what may be knowable. I am also focussed on the process of knowing and not so much on an end product. One very difficult concept for students is that just because you did not find what you were looking for does not at all mean that you did not find anything. We use reasoning skills and do research properly and with a plan because the nature of discovery is sometimes messy. Just think of how many discoveries happened by pure accident; cases where someone went looking for something and found something else entirely.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
