"In science, 'fact' can only mean 'confirmed to such a degree that it would be perverse to withhold provisional assent.' I suppose that apples might start to rise tomorrow, but the possibility does not merit equal time in physics classrooms." - - - Stephen Jay Gould, US author, naturalist, paleontologist, & popularizer of science (1941 - 2002) |
