Here's the thing, John. In science, if a theory is consistent with 
experiment, it's not obviously wrong.

John, as I've explained before, when a theory doesn't match observation, 
there are ALWAYS two things to investigate:
- The inputs fed into the theory are right, and the theory is wrong
- The inputs fed into the theory are wrong, and the theory is right

Now, John, can you please explain to me why only ONE of those is the 
proper assumption to make, in your view of science?
