More In Science "My interests started about in science and in mathematics; I always thought I was going to be a mathematician."― David Chalmers "I could write historical fiction, or science fiction, or a mystery but since I find it fascinating to research the clues of some little know period and develop a story based on that, I will probably continue to do it."― Jean M. Auel "The March on Washington affirmed our values as a people: equality and opportunity for all. Forty-one years ago, during a time of segregation, these were an ideal."― Leonard Boswell
