Yeah, I at least did my part though.

At this point it’s good enough for me. I’m never going to be a name, my advisor already has his, and this guy just desperately wants to discover THE NEXT BIG REVOLUTION in this tiny corner of the world and occasionally stretches things way too far in an effort to get there.

One thing my crazy ex-boss taught me was that, in Science, it is absolutely vital that you always be your own harshest critic. If you don’t, there are lots of other people who will do it for you.

The other thing is just completely basic to Science itself - our job is not to prove our hypotheses. It’s to try as hard as we can to DISprove them, and, if we’re really smart and really lucky, fail.
