Don't love you it when scientists can't explain something or get puzzled by something, such as their fears about bodies lying in the streets all over Africa, and it turns out the area they thought would be the worst (due to resources) has so far been one of the least affected in the world. Scientists are the same kinds of cowardly people that always tell people be careful, be vigilant, don't let your guard down even if you already are careful, vigilant, and on your toes.
Scientists are a lot like many people involved in a religious or spiritual organization, they love to keep people on their knees and fearful of the next wave, even if so far people haven't been complacent, and the worst scenario never became. These folks have a little too much control of the average person's life, and they're among the least socially responsible people there are, which is why despite everyone else not being confused about anything, scientists are still the ones that are puzzled (yet they are also the ones everyone else seems to listen to/look to for answers these days, kind of like people who look to religious organizations or the government for answers they can come up with on their own).

Get the Scientistsmug. A person who suddenly cares about science when major science news is happening. Comparable to a "sunday christian."
