The basic theory of evolution is not debated, and the "details" of any theory are not usually debated per se, rather they are filled in where needed to explain lingering questions. And who should provide these details, scientists or lay people? Obviously, debate among scientists can be healthy for advancing science, itself, but how productive is debate between scientists and lay people? Not very. The problem with the global warming or climate change "debate", is that the vast majority of the scientific community resides on one side, while conservative pundits and politicians mostly reside on the other. There are very few qualified scientists "debating" climate change. At any rate, the climate change contrarians have already conceded that climate change is taking place, even though 10 years ago they didn't even believe that. Now, they've shifted the argument to man-made vs. natural causes, but day by day they lose ground, because of mounting scientific evidence, as we witnessed last week with the IPCC report. -- ezkcdude DIY projects page: http://www.ezdiyaudio.com System: SB3->EZDAC->MIT Terminator 2 interconnects->Endler Audio 24-step Attenuators (RCA-direct)->Parasound Halo A23 125W/ch amplifier->Speltz anti-cables->DIY 2-ways + Dayton Titanic 10" subwoofer He's not hi-fi, he's my stereo. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ezkcdude's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2545 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32352 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
