      fair enough @tetradian. But as you say, even if something does not follow the scientific method it still can be very useful e.g. philosophy.

      I understand the problems that claims of science @tetradian can provide but remember also, that's not necessarily the fault of the author.

      "not necessarily the fault of the author"? - TBH, in that specific case @swardley I'd have my doubts... (but yeah, I'm biased... :-( )

      ah @tetradian ... well I don't know the history but purely on my own selfish grounds can I suggest you let the bias go ...

      Challenge is always good @tetradian. My own nemesis is @FlorianOtel and I'm truly grateful to him for how he has pushed and prodded.

      I've learned a lot from @FlorianOtel. I enjoy the push @tetradian as it forced me to question the limits, constraints & validity ...

      ... but there is a point @tetradian where challenge can become personified. So I respect your view, I hope you let any bias slide.
