Although based on scientific "first principles", complex numerical models inevitably require simplifications, judgment calls, and correction factors.

As a scientist, we have a name for this. It's called a WAG.

That's a wild-a$$ guess, for those of your in Rio Linda.

And yet this WAG is making daily headlines in papers across the world in an attempt to create a global tax and a powerful world government bureaucracy.

I can never remember which is more accurate. Is a WAG more accurate than a ROM? I think a ROM would be considerably more accurate than a WAG.
