Description
Scientists are skeptical, we ask: "Is that idea correct? How can I test it?" Then we resolve to gather and analyze data until we show it isn't or it might be. If we cannot disprove the idea, it survives. No true scientist "believes in science" because he knows science is a process, a process we use to uncover the truth.

Person
Andy May is a writer, blogger and author living in The Woodlands, Texas. He enjoys golf and traveling in his spare time. He is also an editor for the popular climate change blog Wattsupwiththat.com, where he has published numerous posts and is the author or co-author of seven peer-reviewed papers on various geological, engineering and petrophysical topics. He has also written about computers and computer software. He retired from a 42-year career in petrophysics in 2016. Most of his petrophysical work was for several oil and gas companies worldwide. He has worked in exploring, appraising and developing oil and gas fields in the U.S., Argentina, Brazil, Indonesia, Thailand, China, the U.K. North Sea, Canada, Mexico, Venezuela and Russia. He helped discover and appraise several large fields including Block 0436 offshore of China; Gryphon Field in the UK North Sea; Nansen and Boomvang in the Gulf of Mexico; and Natuna D-Alpha in Indonesia. Late in his career, he worked on unconventional shale oil and gas petrophysics and developed many unique techniques for evaluating these difficult reservoirs. In cooperation with Professor Mike Lovell (University of Leicester in the U.K.) he developed a one-week course in shale reservoir petrophysics. Andy has a B.S. in Geology from the University of Kansas.
