Somehow I lost the reference here, but anyhow:
The boiling frog-metaphor is just that:
An urban myth!
Any educated person should not use it.
No frog is as dumb as that. Only humans are. And they abuse the poor frog to 
justify their dumbness.

Somehow evidence has disconnected from mythical tales, which at times stretches 
out to superstring-theory or the big bang.

And myth regularly seems to trump evidence.

Sounds familiar?
Guess so.
