"Upper pig enclosure" huh? I have a little Scottish blood in me. It seems to me that maybe the Scots didn't get that Gaelic sense of poetic language that the Irish and the Welsh have.
But I wanted to talk about that child, who is not doing anything except "walking - down a staircase." That's all there is to the question. A lot of things have been ascribed to the child: learning, science (which is in the question), gender (both of them), age, and a lot of other stuff that just plain isn't in the question.
Sidewalk may have made his point. His point may have been that scientists will try to analyze things they make up themselves. That's sure a valid point here.
Look at this again. Remember, there is no evidence beyond what you see in the words printed below. Tell me where you find the descriptions of the child that have been thrown around in this thread:
does a child exercise science when walking - down a staircase?
I took out the word "BONUS" because I didn't want it to distract people who seem to be distracted by almost anything.
I think I've tried this before. I think it failed. Does anybody else see that this discussion has gone beyond the evidence presented to it? Does anybody else see there isn't enough information in the question to form an answer?
Are anybody out there interested in the examining the precise information given, or does everyone want to chase phantoms?

p.s. Yes, I know I've offended Scottish people everywhere. I apologize to all of them, including myself. I didn't mean any offense to me. I appreciate my rich history in science and medicine. I know my ancestors were, more than any others, responsible for the Industrial Revolution. Oh oh. I apologize to all those other people who thought their ancestors were responsible for the Industrial Revolution . . . .
