We've arranged                            a society based on science and technology,
 in which                            nobody understands anything about science and technology.
 And this                            combustible mixture of ignorance and power,
 sooner or                            later,
 is going                            to blow up in our faces.
 Who is                            running the science and technology in a democracy
 if the                            people don't know anything about it??
