A word of caution... as I've stated (monotonously) before, science, at its heart is nothing more than data gathering. Granted, gathering that data can be difficult in extremis[i but it's the interpretation of that data wherein disagreements lie, no?
Fact is, the basis of making scientific interpretations valid is the constant revision of those interpretations, rarely the data. Having said that, it's not unreasonable for the non-scientist who observes the [i]in-house] disagreements to form opinions themselves that may be contrary to one or more groups of 'scientists', no?
How often do we see supposed scientific pronouncements reversed or declared non-valid over the centuries, not to count outright hoaxes perpetrated in the name of 'science' (can any one spell Piltdown Man?).
I fully accept science's ability to produce good data, but at the same time, am often sceptical of those that have no room in their lexicon for alternative views of intrepretations of that data...
