The junk scientists surpassed Canute long ago. But they're sneaky -- nobody will likely live long enough to prove them wrong. Besides, there's a part of human nature that really wants to believe this nonsense. Scottish journalist Charles Mackey wrote about it in his 1841 book "Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds." People are still just as gullible.
