Returning to botany, Scottish botany in particular, here's hoping there will always be a sufficient number of botanists to protect these...

in order that there may continue to be a ready supply of this...

Well, I am disgusted with the AGW crowd and much of the science tangential to it, for one very simple reason: peer review is now corrupted by all the studies based on false data. Since these studies are referenced in and across disciplines to prove theses, their speciousness invalidates peer review’s credibility on its face.

Whether internal arguments are valid, sound, and so forth, as you both have been discussing and arguing over, is pointless, when the data is so corrupted that the research cannot conclude results correctly and accurately.

And that makes me very angry. I have believed in the value of the Academy all my life. I’m arriving at the point of thinking it’s mostly a sham, except for accounting and electrical engineering, neither of which is my content area.
