What I want is a return to science. Scientific theory. Hypothesis tested to completion. Not the hyped up BS we are getting lately from politicians.
- Observation: Every swan I've ever seen is white.
- Hypothesis: All swans must be white.
- Test: A random sampling of swans from each continent where swans are indigenous produces only white swans.
- Publication: "My global research has indicated that swans are always white, wherever they are observed."
- Verification: Every swan any other scientist has ever observed in any country has always been white.
- Theory: All swans are white.
Prediction: The next swan I see will be white.
Today we get scientific results by committee. Not the above scientific process. Thanks Al Gore and the IPCC! You have done the world and scientific community a major dis-service!
