How to make 10 million discoveries

January 11, 2020 By Susannah Fox Leave a Comment

How to make 10 million discoveries

When people’s questions go unanswered, they don’t stop asking them. They turn to Dr. Google and other sources. They try to solve their own mysteries, using whatever they can find.

Please click through to read Gary Wolf’s essay, “How to make 10 million discoveries.” Then come back and let me know what you think!
