reasonable arguments? ive never encountered one! carbon dating might not be perfect, but im yet to see any explanation that illustrates that the technique is a factor of millions out! |
Well noone was actually there, or witnessed any of the evolutionary events which gave us present day life. So what we have is a "best guess", a theory of evolution which *is* being added to and revised. When I talk to someone who actaully knows a bit about science and points out an obscurity or something that im not familiar with, it challenges me on the spot to come up with an answer. And thats what I respect, the fact that someone has spotted a flaw and can argue it.
But its all good, and makes you think about how you understand patterns and processes. As a scientist, you have to remain critical and hold some scepticism on all aspects I guess.

i dont know why its "interesting". i actually find it obvious, given that a lack of scientific knowledge has engendered all kinds of weird beliefs and imaginations... |
I reckon that a lot of it was finding fossils or similar, and then thinking up awesome stories about them :) And that is kinda interesting, just labelling it ignorance takes the fun out of it, myths are cool. |

second story:
a different colleague was under my supervision to do some data entry. she had 3 toolbars at the bottom of the screen- 1) the software we were using, 2) a spreadsheet we were entering data into and 3) the folder that the spreadsheet was located in.
we did about 15 entries over 90 mins. each and every (and i mean ing every) time she had to move from 1) to 2), for some reason she would go to 3) first, and then realise, oh i need 2). but she didnt learn. ever. its not ing rocket science ffs.
i wanted to punch her in the back of the head. |
