"We don't see any reason to make that line between kids and adults and play. Just because, you look at a kid playing and you figure they're just doing it to have fun, but they're understanding their world through these little adventures they're having; these little experiments. It's often very non-linear, but they're building a foundation of understanding of the world and there's not really that much difference as far as adults. A lot of scientists go in this linear direction and there are times that's the way to do things and that's very productive, but a lot of the most important discoveries that have been made happen off to the side, on some tangent."
