"Nullus in Verba" means "Nothing in words". In other words, experiments should be shown rather than described. Other than that, I fully support this organization's initiative and would like to join.

1. Jacques Goldtimbers I of France (Former monarch of France, sometimes operates under the nom de plume "Jack Swordmenace"

2. I have held numerous titles during my days, but my most notable were, under the name of Jack Swordmenace, I was accused of being a "pirate king", both before and after I ascended the throne of France.

3. I have always entertained a pet-interest in science. The study of hot and cold, of the gunk on my front teeth, of the microbes that compose life. In each there is something that does not make sense, and so I must find out what the solution is, through experimental science.

4. Unfortunately, I have come on in years. When I was of University-age, Science was repressed by the Catholic faith and its leaders. It was not an offering at the University of Cambridge, and was a closet-practice for me. I was a member of the Cambridge Platonists, whom accepted and practices post-Galilean science, although my views on their idealogical concerns were very unorthodox. Times have changed (and are changing still), and I have visited a man by the name of Thomas Rutherford at Cambridge with whom I have exchanged knowledge of physical science. He is a member of the original Royal Society branch in England.

5. Personally I favor cell theory. Robert Hooke and Anton van Leeuwenhoek before me have laid out the groundwork for research of these fascinating creatures... and I believe them to be the key to understanding life.
