[Rockhounds] Scientific Ineptitude

Mike, can you please explain the difference between "scientists" and scientists.
I hope you still have trust in the latter?

Here is some sarcasm:

I'm amazed that "scientists" would make exaggerated, titillating,
fictional claims just to push a sound byte and obtain government
funding for their projects.

Sarcasm off.


I long ago lost faith in "scientists", partly over the
global warming debate.
