I think what really happens in science is a model more like the magic well, where no matter how many buckets you take out, there's always another bucket of water to be had, or my particularly favorite one, with the effect and everything, the ripples on a pond.
我觉得真正的科学研究模式 更像是个魔力井。 不管你捞出多少桶水， 井里总有另桶水着你去捞。 还有一个我特别喜欢的说法， 科学研究就象池塘上的一圈圈涟漪。
