Abstract

If one wandered about asking biologists to complete the sentence “Centrioles are ...” the answers might well range from “I don’t know” to “Centrioles are self-replicating organelles responsible for the synthesis and assembly of microtubules.” Although it is conceivable that the latter reply contains a little truth, the “I don’t know” is more likely to be the reply of an expert.

What we need we do not know

And what we know we do not need.
