Pop Science vs Science

I'm a big fan of science, real science. Not the crap that is being past off as "Science" today. Especially when the subject of Global Warming or "Climate Change" comes up.

So I put this list together to help people understand the difference.



"Science is a method of finding things out:  observation, testing and experimentation is the ultimate judge of the truth of a concept. All scientists are skeptics – it is important to doubt in order to test concepts and look in new directions.  Anyone who doesn't doubt, i.e., anyone who isn't a skeptic, isn't a scientist."  
(Richard Feynman

 "If any exception to a concept can be proven by observation, the concept is wrong." 
(Albert Einstein

"The number of scientists who believe something, is irrelevant to the validity of a concept." 
[In other words, 'consensus' means nothing.]
(Galileo

Government can't decide "the truth" of a scientific concept. (Mackay)

Future predictive computer models cannot PROVE anything by definition! 
(Mackay)
