I grant you the appeal to authority, and raise you a proof of its fallacy.

I have and you don't understand the demonstration no matter how I phrase it. What's a turtle to do?

I see it as the background of the skepticism of my skepticism, and more or less then, written between the lines. If it is not the case for you, my bad, but there is no denying the world at large expresses that view and I am attempting to put my case in context in order to clarify it.

Models are great and I love them; but they are just one tool in the box, and one that requires constant honing no less. As a carpenter, one is expected to show up with the proper tools to work, and while showing up with no chisel is an amateurs goof, showing up with only a chisel is a gaff.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
