  • Scientists

    Note to Krauthammer: Have you ever met a scientist? "Compliant" is the last word anyone would use to describe them.

    I know wherof I speak on this topic...

    While in many situations scientists are compliant, when it comes to discussing a scientific issue among themselves, the macho, argumentative, defend my ideas until data proves me wrong grandstanding would put even the most belligerent Republican Pundit to shame.

    That's one of the reasons why if there is general scientific consensus on something (such as Global Warming), perhaps you should listen.

    (nb. the crucial difference between scientists and Republican Pundits is that the latter continue holding to a position long after the data proves them wrong).
