This site is dedicated to the power of the seemingly simple phrase '... don't know, but ...'.
Using this phrase opens up possibilities like:

  • I don't know, but I'll find out
  • I don't know, but let's figure it out together
  • I don't know, but let's take some time to make sure of this

Its power lies in opening up a process, rather than closing it down.
