@Oozenet hmm. I'm afraid that doesn't ring true for me. Yes, the scientific process can lead to cults of personality around individuals who are almost worshipped for their cleverness... however, I'd argue that this is much more prevalent in a capitalist-run version of science that we see now... where a brilliant scientist attracts grant money, often from industry, and attracts others who can ride on their coattails... in my experience as a scientist the driver is curiosity, not ego. @strypey
