Hello, out there ... is anybody thinking?

Stephen opines that many seem to regard inquiry or speculation as an extra, relatively unimportant and pointless learning experience. When he ask his students to think about people, places, and things, as well as ideas, most students maintain that their responses would be only suppositions, not necessarily reflective of their potential behaviors and actions. However, a few bright and free-flowing spirits do take on the challenge, incorporating all of the precious resources that life has to offer.
