Alright. Credit where, credit's due, it was WarK's idea, discussed with me in the LoR chat. 
The way he asked the question was "what is your favourite 'thing' about science"? I have rephrased the question somewhat. However, it boils down to the same basic question:
What part of the scientific mode of inquiry do you find most attractive as an epistemological theory? There are a couple of quotes here that I would have set as my signature, (and in the following format) were it not for the character-limit. Is there any means for me to do this?
"The game of science is, in principle, without end. He who decides one day that scientific statements do not call for any further test, and that they can be regarded as finally verified, retires from the game." -- Karl Popper, from The Logic of Scientific Discovery

"Houdini's principle states that just because something is unexplained does not mean that it is paranormal, supernatural, extraterrestrial, or conspiritorial. Before you say something is out of this world, first make sure that it is not in this world, for science is grounded in naturalism, not supernaturalism, paranormalism, or any other unnecessarily complicated explanations." -- Michael Shermer, 2011
This sums it up nicely. Anything to add, guys?
