(34,117 posts)I've seen some real whoppers here, anti-GMO, anti-vaccine, anti-Nuke.
It's worse at Kos, I think.
I was amused when one of the prominent scientists they were always worshiping over there at Kos for his stance on climate change wrote a major scientific paper in a major environmental journal that disagreed with the official Kos line, and sort of fell off the radar screen and became a non-person.
Skinner, to his credit, does not speak on subjects he knows nothing about, but the management at Kos sure does.
We have a pretty nice science group here and, in general, the scientific talk is pretty good.
Despite the episodes of anti-science here by members, their anti-science views are not officially supported and, if one is not tired of doing so, evocations of scientific nonsense can be confronted here without penalty.
