(Full disclosure: have science PhD, wife has science PhD, sister has science PhD): with no snark intended: have you met (m)any scientists?
- orwin 5y agoYes! An i agree with GP: while they sometime talk about some junky theory (the one i spoke with the most is a retired geneticist agronomist - J.Mallard, who try to convince me that drosophila are somehow born either righty or lefty, and that their choices are caused by genetics), they utter the words "Maybe, i don't know, possibly, i do believe so, but don't take my words for it..." more than the average population. Disagree?
