This is why science drives me mad sometimes, the premise of so many different theories in Longevity "based on science" having been rooted in "science" derived from this women, who may turn out to be this woman's daughter, mind blowing. And I can hear it now "Well technically the science itself was correct..."
- icebraining 8y agoCan you list these scientific theories based solely on evidence from the life of this woman?
- JohnJamesRambo 8y agoAs a scientist myself, you don’t really want to see how the sausage is made for a lot of science. Which is why I don’t hold it to the almost religious level I see lots of modern people hold it to. Science is still made by humans and humans run a huge spectrum from imbecile to genius. We all work with idiots in our buildings that lie and twist facts or are just generally bad scientists. Your best bet is if the science is replicated in other labs. A great read is Feynman’s Cargo Cult Science essay, to think about how hard it is to design an experiment that answers exactly what you are asking as a scientist. http://calteches.library.caltech.edu/51/2/CargoCult.htm http://calteches.library.caltech.edu/51/2/CargoCult.htm
