Common Sense Vs. The Scientific Mind

"The whole of science is nothing more than a refinement of everyday thinking." (Albert Einstein)
As a graduate research assistant in a virology/immunology laboratory, I'm seeing more and more the brilliancy of this quote and at the same time feeling a sense of humbleness and awe that God created not just a few but all people to have minds for scientific research. Many things that I've learned from observing and doing research, interestingly, find their origin in our common sense. Here I'd like to share a few examples with you.
