Thought for Today

"I don't like that they're not calculating anything. I don't like that
they don't check their ideas. I don't like that for anything that disagrees with an experiment, they cook up an explanation... It is precise mathematically, but the mathematics is far too difficult for the individuals that are doing it, and they don't draw their conclusions with any rigour. So they just guess."

~~~~~ Richard P. Feynman

Feynman was commenting on superstring theory, but could just as well have been describing the theory of man-made global warming.
