Yeah, except that the people who make the basic discoveries have to work 
many long years just to learn what they need to know in order to conduct 
the experiment in which the discovery is made, or to properly understand 
the accidental discovery that just happened.  People don't put in that 
kind of time unless at some level it's fun for them.
