I left this thread after realizing how ludicrous the "discussion" had become. I jumped back in when I innocently offered up a correction to something very trivial. Now I'm leaving again because this has turned just as pants on head stupid as it was before.

Thanks for the innocent correction.

The coined term was used less than a year by scientists. Not closed minded American as sooperman suggests
look at the context there as you appear way off.

You lost me. Much as I lost you. What's wrong with the context?

It seems he is not going on about closed minded scientists who had quickly rectified their error, he is going on about people who still seem to hold a 30year old erroneous viewpoint.

This is how I read the context of soopamans post. However, bundling all "closed minded folks" as believing the erroneous viewpoint does not fly.

Indeed, but in the context it was used it appeared to be bundling one person on account of their views.

He'll be back.

Let's play a little drinking game. Everytime Mookie checks this thread after this post; everybody take one drink. Every time he posts after this post everybody take two drinks.

Three drinks if he posts another funny gif.
