Unfortunately the earth sciences are still in the Victorian era. And
there is no shaking the damn fools.
Newton said he was like a boy playing on the sea-shore, finding a
smoother pebble whilst the great ocean of truth lay before before him,
undiscovered.
We should have used those pebbles to build bridges by now but they are
still washing on the shores of a Victorian holiday beach-front
promenade.
We could have reached stars and all we have done is reverted to a
fundamentalism akin to the Inquisition.
I can't see it changing in my lifetime. Hopefully it won't be as long
after I'm gone as I imagine, before the monkeys see reason. But I
can't imagine any monkeys becoming teachable.
Can you?
