It's an expression: what I mean is precisely what is written in the
label. In this case, the email subject :)

Nice. I like that better than Popper.

The tin?

Science is the dream of Coconsciousness, attempt of sharing curiosity and the 
delight of exploration and contemplation of a possible reality.

But as you know, I don’t believe in science, but in scientific attitude (mainly 
modesty, perhaps only the Löbian modesty), and it does not depend on the 
subject of the inquiry. It is might need a consciousness that theories are 
beliefs to be checked infinitely often.
