        I don’t think anything I have done has saved a life. But that is not really the point of what I have been doing up to this point anyway.

        No…. nor will it. My science is what is called basic science. Science that is tying to extend the boundaries of human knowledge without specifically making a product other than knowledge. We might not be able to use that knowledge now but someone might in the future to make something useful.
