+//Why does reproducible research matter after all?//
-===== Science imposes responsibility on scientists =====
+The simple answer: Because it is at the heart of science and the scientific method. To put it straight: No reproducible research, no science. Science imposes responsibility on the scientist -- towards other scientists and the society.
-<blockquote>If I have seen further, it is by standing on y<sup>e</sup> shoulders of giants.<cite>Sir Isaak Newton((Letter to Robert Hooke, February 5, 1676))</cite></blockquote>

-  * Science is based on results previously achieved by others.
+===== Science =====
-  * Results should be independent of the scientist.
-  * Science aims at gaining knowledge about the world surrounding us.
-  * Results should be independently reproducible.
-This immediately reveals scientific research to be a responsible undertaking. Scientists bear responsibility towards those building upon their results. Interpretations may and will change, data should remain unchanged and unquestioned. Therefore, data need to be recorded and documented to the best of our knowledge and belief.
