SCIENCE: If a scientific heresy is ignored or denounced by the general public, there is a chance it may be right. If a scientific heresy is emotionally supported by the general public, it is almost certainly wrong. ... It is not so much that I have confidence in scientists being right, but that I have so much in nonscientists being wrong. ... It is those who support ideas for emotional reasons only who can't change. -- Isaac Asimov, "Asimov's Corollary," 1977
