How Science Got Sound Wrong

Allow your friend and humble narrator to summarize: atdavid is never wrong and it’s everybody else who doesn’t understand. 🤗

Here is an example of being wrong. "Geoffkait claims he is a theoretical physicist .. it’s right in these forums. Then geoffkait claims he never said he had a degree in theoretical physics". atdavid proves that geoffkait actually has a degree in aeronautical engineering (check UVA records), then proves geoffkait actually wrote that he had a degree in theoretical physics (he wrote that in a forum). See, that is called addressing the content and proving a claim to be wrong.


atdavid makes a "claim". geoffkait’s response, "you’re wrong" and "you cut and paste from wikipedia", etc. No proof that atdavid’s claims are wrong, and usually an ad-hominem.


Notice a difference?  geoffkait and a clique of others like to tell me (and others) that they are wrong, but unsurprisingly, can never show how we are wrong.

Wrong again, Mr. Bluster! I never said I had a degree in Theoretical Physics. And I never said I had a degree in Aeronautical Engineering, either. I bet you’re really confused now, Mr. Bluster. 😡 Am I seeing steam coming out of your nose? 😤

And even when faced with overwhelming evidence of being wrong, the clique will never admit it and just doubles down on lies ...

English majors vs Tweakers

just another example from Jgossman of the problem with English majors getting into the fray., at least from a technical standpoint. I have a degree in theoretical physics (fluid dynamics and propulsion) from the University of Virginia, actually now that I think about it I accumulated the most credits ever recorded by an undergraduate, 203. I was selected to present my undergraduate thesis to the AIAA national conference on a design of a low thrust rocket engine for interplanetary space travel using highly magnetized metal crystal bombarded by highly accelerated Xenon ions. I designed the FAA's first satellite system twenty five years ago. i wrote the definitive explanation for how the intelligent chip works quantum mechanically ten years ago and have been designing quantum chips for many years. However, I can certainly understand how English majors would be rubbed the wrong way.
