Entry: The Galileo Myth Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/the_galileo_myth#15667 Post contents: The advice the gave to Galileo "say it is a theory or speculation, not the truth" is sound advice for any scientist wishing to publish. Data may indicate that a certain propositon is valid, but there may be data around the corner that disproves it. All Science is tentative. It is when it becomes dogma that the trouble starts. I remember when chocolate was supposed to be bad for you. Thank God that theory was disproved! Godiva, Dove, Ghirardelli, Perugia, here I come!!!! Sent at: 2008 12 02
