So it's your contention that *every* *single* *idea* should have "theory" appended onto it?
It's a fact that most scientific theories are eventually refined, superseded, or abandoned - even theories that have stood for centuries. But people like you always talk as if our present state of knowledge is the last word, and I find that infuriating. In my opinion, smugness is the antithesis of the scientific spirit.
Only those "ideas" as set forth in the AP Style manual, you know, the very manual that a public affairs officers is supposed to have expertise in.
