Now I know what you are thinking, and yes, some of what some of us do is not morally defensible, and I'm not going to pretend that that sort of thing is something I support. But that is what we have superheros for, right? To deal with those sorts.
The rest of us just want to answer the really hard questions. "Can you stop time?" "Can you travel in time?" "How many licks does it take to get to the centre of various lollypops?" "What if the moon were transparent?" "Is vampirism a disease or genetic?" Those sorts of things.
Why just last week I helped out a fellow who wanted to know about one of those. We only caused a couple of tidal waves, and to be honest, Florida is better off for them. And he got his answer.
So you see? We just want to help people.
