>> I love the act of discovery.
I love the fact that I'm working on questions that nobody knows the answer to
and nobody has -- some of them nobody's even thought to ask before.
And I love the fact that it's a puzzle.
That it's difficult.
And that whatever I find is new, and that makes it exciting for me.
You don't always know what the right questions are to ask
because you don't know what the end answer is.
So it's not even -- sometimes it's not even clear what direction you're supposed to move
in with the research, so that makes it hard.
And often, you know, research is such that you try a few different trails and many
of them end up being rabbit trails.
And eventually you do hit on the main successful one.
