How many billion did the government spend to invent tefflon??

And you call that a good deal?

What I'm saying is that if they can't get Pluto right.... I doesn't convince me that they understand deep space that well.

Sure science says "here's what we think... and we go with that until we are proven wrong". So that being true, how much stock should I really place in the 13 billion year number?

First of all, do you have ANY idea how much money Teflon has made for the private sector?

Any clue, it is by now in the 100's of billions, if not trillions of dollars.

Also, what is this thing you have about Pluto, care to enlighten us on what the devil you are talking about?

And acually, 13 billion years is a little young, it's actually more like 15 billion for the age of the universe.

This planet just happens to be one of the oldest that we have found.
