And, Uncle Al or whatever you are, your recent metamorphosis only shows that your masters have somehow ignored your precious contributions. Your image remains unchanged. You will remain forever one of the silliest bellicose zombies in Einstein criminal cult. Let me refer you to a person who, while dying, said essentially what you say above, but whose words are much more valuable than everything Uncle Al, Divine Uncle Al, Oncle Dom, Uncle Ben etc. have ever found it suitable to say: http://www.ekkehard-friebe.de/wallace.htm Bryan Wallace: "There is a popular argument that the world's oldest profession is sexual prostitution. I think that it is far more likely that the oldest profession is scientific prostitution, and that it is still alive and well, and thriving in the 20th century. I suspect that long before sex had any commercial value, the prehistoric shamans used their primitive knowledge to acquire status, wealth, and political power, in much the same way as the dominant scientific and religious politicians of our time do.....The true scientist must have faith and believe in the scientific method of testing theories, and not in the theories themselves. I agree with Seeds argument that "A pseudoscience is something that pretends to be a science but does not obey the rules of good conduct common to all sciences." Because many of the dominant theories of our time do not follow the rules of science, they should more properly be labeled pseudoscience. The people who tend to believe more in theories than in the scientific method of testing theories, and who ignore the evidence against the theories they believe in, should be considered pseudoscientists and not true scientists. To the extent that the professed beliefs are based on the desire for status, wealth, or political reasons, these people are scientific prostitutes." Pentcho Valev pvalev@yahoo.com
