XS>Has it been observed twice, published and independently observed?"

CG> Yes, but if you took a philosophy of science class, you would know that direct observation isn't a requirement for a scientific theory. MOST scientific theories have a lot of indirect evidence. Again, next time actually take the class, or study harder.

You are right; it has been deconstructed in our post-modern universities.

When I took the course, direct observation was mandatory.
