Clues to the great mystery are all around us; within every stone lies another. Observations are made. Specimens are collected. Data is recorded. Everything is cataloged, turned, and fitted like pieces of a broken tablet. Where there are holes, theories can be drawn to fill them—all in an effort to assemble a story that will light the void and give meaning to the meaningless. For without an explanation who could sleep peacefully through the night.
