@BoingBoing Raises the question: what is the worst science word ever? I vote phlogiston. -
@nothingsmonstrd Phrenology beats it, hands down. -
@parasat so many good candidates: epicycle, eugenic, lumeniferous ... -
@nothingsmonstrd Eugenic? Didn't he write the Virgin Suicides? -
@parasat "Hypothesis" and "theory" are also perfectly good Greek words. -
@nothingsmonstrd So is phlogiston (phlog, phlox, phlogizein) but it still sucks.
