when facts cannot be ignored, because you no more need a PhD to be sure of the result, then they have to adapt... until then, like a turkey in the death row, they gain time with imaginary problems... standard. 2013/5/29 Randy wuller <rwul...@freeark.com> > ** > Joshua: > > However, the idea that the scientific community can ignore results which > absent fraud prove a new energy source is quite telling.
