If you call a dog’s tail a leg, how many legs does a dog have?

The correct answer, of course, is four. Calling a dog’s tail a leg doesn’t MAKE it a leg.

Calling climate change “settled science” doesn’t make it “settled science”, either. There is no such thing as “settled science”, if the scientific process is being applied as it was meant to be.

There are accepted hypotheses that stand up to repeated tests of a limited variety, but a new and different test of the hypothesis may cause repeated failures to attain a reproducible result, and a new hypothesis must be constructed to account for the disparity.

You cannot know what could go wrong, in any newly developed system, until after it has gone wrong.
