Guest guest Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 Yes, I remember as a little girl being told by my mother the old wives tale about you cant do anything once mildew sets into fabric. The old wives had experience (not the science) and were often right. From: iequality [mailto:iequality ] On Behalf Of Jim H.

Some of the leading edge system science in regular physics, and other areas of science, is starting to accumulate evidence that we have long built overly-simplified models and theories; they are good for most cases, but not all. This over-simplification has sometimes mislead us in where we should be looking and made us too positive of our inclination to classify outliers as bad data; often it is not. When you ask the wrong questions the probability of getting good answers goes way down; way, way down. Jim H.
