[QUOTE="OzzieBlue, post: 1703486"] While I understand (and don't necessarily disagree with) your point, I also recognize that the "stark difference" is not as stark as many would like to believe. Case in point, in 1989 Marty Fleischmann and Stanley Pons published their original paper on "cold fusion". Conventional wisdom at the time said that it was impossible and because it was difficult to reproduce their results, they were ridiculed mercilessly and their careers were destroyed. Now, we are finding that they were correct in their hypothesis and did, in fact, demonstrate cold fusion. Even "really smart people involved in educated hypothetical particle physics" can be mislead by their preconceived notions and beliefs. I guess my point was that even though we should be skeptical of what is unproven, we should also strive to not be limited by our beliefs. I try to remember that anything is possible, although not necessarily probably. [/QUOTE]
