These areas are far out of my reach with regards to decision-making. I can merely comment on them, but refuse to make any significant statements about these areas. Educating oneself in scientific discoveries is a topic I enjoy dearly, yet it would be arrogant and ludicrous to assert propositions and ideas in this area as it is a very disciplinary field. With my trust in the empirical scientific method, one must let the professionals, the great minds within science, to continue discovering scientific wonders.
