Researchers: Why study science? ?

i personally would get bored to death if i would have to do some ordinary desk job, some people just cant help but wonder "how is that thing working" the minute they see something, more complicated the better. best go and get a cup of coffee or just go to sleep and the hell with it. one can only push so far, just wing the exam - too bad if you fail. exams and such are easier second time around anyway
