in which case there are very few scientific techniques in the world - classic example is the field allopathic medicine. Most of us follow fuzzy logic - there is a good probability that this will work, so lets try it again. Next one is - dont fix what is not broken - it seems to work, though we cant understand why, so leave it to work. What we have to oppose is things like: everyone does it, so it must be right. That is unscientific, and I think that is the only principle one should use - just because everyone does it, why should I? -- regards KG http://lawgon.livejournal.com _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
