what I love about quantum mechanics is the mathematics behind it, it's beautiful. the relativistitically invariant equations of motion between electrons, quantum kinematics, lorentz group, etc.
cool .

The difference is that the gravitational effects of dark matter can be measured and mapped, whereas - so far as I'm aware at least - there was never any particular evidence for the luminiferous ether. There is certainly something that is exerting a large gravitational force on galaxies and the extent to which this something in any way resembles baryonic matter (i.e. the matter that you, me and the stars are made from) is yet to be known, but until then the potentially misleading term "dark matter" will have to do.

Great talk, thanks for posting!
loved his side note about scientists having a sense of humility as well.
can't ing stand 'scientists' who claim to know everything, or even claim to know anything for sure. Irritating as hell.

yea but thats not much time to changed at all now is it? think about the 13 billion years. everyone 100 years now? how you can you change?
