Hi Kiddo. Some scientists have a hard time accepting something they can’t feel with their own fingers, see with their own eyes, hear with their own ears, or taste with their own mouth.

We had the same problem with some high-ranking military officers. When they were told about certain things they replied no way could the enemy mount that kind of an offensive. Some of them paid a very high price for that thinking.

Sometimes those in the world of academics have to pay a high price. Fortunately it’s not as high as the one the military has to pay when they are wrong, or won’t listen. Take Care…Don in creepy town
