In a lecture I heard last week about epistemology, the guys said many profound things. Maybe the most profound was "pear reviewed" almost guarantees no new ideas. Some of the great men of science mentioned here would not have passed "pear review".
Hey ringy, you know how much the findings of a "scientific" paper are worth when the "scientific" paper can't stand up to examination and questions from the peer group?
As an old school well driller once told me, "best print it on some nice soft paper so at least it'll be useful for something."
