From a Science Website:
The more we learn about fast radio bursts, the less we know about them. [End quote]
From a non-science website:
Professor Tumuch Lerner announced today that scientists have agreed to stop making new discoveries. “The problem,” he said, “is that the more we discover, the less we know. If this trend continues, then pretty soon we won’t know anything.”
