Abstract: The article presents the author's comment on how science can help to distinguish true genius from illogical ideas. According to him, logic of science is not so far removed from the logic of ordinary life, and so fallible human judgment still determines what happens at the heart of even the hardest science. This could be seen in the U.S. military's $1 million per year investment on anti-gravity research.
