So, you know, when we think about Ponzi schemes... It's named after a guy named Ponzi, who was an Italian-American who preyed on the Italian-American community.

So in the academic world, the fact that I can trust my colleagues means that we can diffuse the work to the person who can handle it best. So there's lots of enormous benefits from trust. But it's also true that if there is somebody out there who's going to commit a fraud of any type, those of us who are trusting that individual are perhaps in the worst position to notice that something's wrong.

And quite honestly, Stephen, you know, I've been working with junior colleagues who are smarter than me and know how to do a variety of tasks better than me for such a long time, I've always trusted them.

Undoubtedly, I was naive. You know, not only did I trust my colleagues on the signing first paper, but I think I've trusted my colleagues for decades. And hopefully, with a good basis for trusting them, I do want to highlight that there's so many benefits of trust. So the world has... done a lot better because we trust science.
