    Instilling the “Oh, I was wrong, THAT’S SO COOL” mindset in people is one of the best things science education can do.

    And it translates to all walks of life.

    There’s so much misery in the world simply from people who know nothing convinced they know everything.

      I seem to recall Adam Savage saying this at some point.
