That wasn't phd514's point at all. It's clear he didn't bother to read the article. (lol, look at me, I'm upset people didn't read the article before commenting. I'm turning into such an old fart. Maybe

If "skeptics" understood what the Navier-Stokes equations do, it would be easier to sympathize.

You can call it a fourth-order bundle of holomorphic consequences if you like. The difference is fine enough to slice a silk scarf in two.

Are you saying that the problem here is that people aren't doing what they're told by authorities? Because I can confidently say that this is not an accurate reading of the fine article. Or, you know, reality.

I'm pretty wound up about the responses in this thread, so I'm going to come across a little hot, but it is not directed at you. You are asking a very important question, and you deserve a decent attempt at an answer. First thing

Coming from the nuclear industry, this sounds crazy, even compared to our outage culture. NRC says that you can work up to 16 hours, then you MUST go home for 8. It takes some paperwork to get a one-time exception.
