Is There a Difference Between a Smart Person and a Paleotologist?

i think it's always been the case that, you know, the smart people of today are spending their time doing acts, and insoacts whata. i don't begrudge them that. What i do think is the reason they're making that choice is also because weare not doing a very good job of explaining that following curiosity is actually good. And this is something that i have learned anew as a dad,.  What i would like most for my son, and i like jos sort of similar age, is for them to like something enough that they want to spend time oni.
