BS: Ok this is from another section but another big general question is what is your understanding of science?

SB: Oh no ((laughs)).It's finding out - it's finding out about the world around you. It's looking - closely at everything, how things work, and trying to look for patterns and clues. It's just - it's in everything around us. I I do find this a very difficult question. I can't define science. It's having a curiosity to know why - that's - you know it's raising questions about things and then trying to find a logical way of getting the answers. But - I don't have a very good definition of science. That's the best I can think of ((laughs)).
