Ok... I'll play...
Person A: I read that scientist C said X was extinct..
Scientist B: Ur Dumb... A real scientist would never make such an absolute statement. A real scientist would say "thought extinct" or "appears to be extinct".. so he could cover his behind if X was ever found to not really be extinct.
Person A: Ok, Thanks for the lesson. Ur the scientist, you should know.
Scientist B: There is no evidence nor will there ever be for Z.
Person A: Hey, I thought you said a real scientist never made absolute statements like that.
Scientist B: That rule doesn't apply to me in this case.
Person A: Why not?
Scientist B: Because X <> Z
Person A: Huh???
Scientist B: Yah... The rule only applies when I say so you obtuse moron...
Person B turns on dancing music to drown out all the shuffle ball, shuffle ball, step, steps....

" Scientist B: There is no evidence nor will there ever be for Z."
That's your invention. None of us have said this. Or implied it.
