Something I'm rather curious about. Are you disinterested in it, because of its nature? Similarly, are you excited by the day in day out 'hot' studies? And by 'hot', I mean things like 'researchers discover amazing new way to destroy cancer cells' given what you know to expect of such a study.
It seems to me that so often we apply, in completely good faith, base characteristics to others when considering them as a group, yet simultaneously it seems like few would ever say those characteristics actually apply to themselves.
Mostly just a random thought that occurred when reading your post. It's interesting to consider things like all movies becoming explosions and CG because 'everybody else loves that stuff' even though ticket sales have declined by 30% since 2002 (gross receipts are up thanks to substantial increases in price). Or similarly at the same time everybody focuses on 'hot' science, trust and arguably (and paradoxically) even interest seems to be rapidly declining.
