Science (and turnips)

****************************

The 'Physical  Sciences' are an exact science; the 'Social Sciences' are not.

It must be nice to work in a field where there are exactitudes; certainties. Where there are 'answers' waiting to be 'discovered', and you are either right or wrong.

I once worked in a field gathering turnips. There was neither right nor wrong in that field - just turnips.

You can always be certain of a turnip.
