Talk:Scientific method

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I see you just removed this part I wrote:

In reality, since scientists usually get their money from governments, this has a lot to do with the direction of their science. Both Nazis and communists made a lot of use of scientists, for example.

So, I guess people are supposed to put their blind faith in scientists, because they're all good, all the time, and working hard at doing good things. Nobody should ever question this or think too hard about it, because if you hear a "scientist" told you something, you know it's true. Blockinblox 22:11, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Moved commentary from article

  • "indefinite amount or time as sugar will not dissolve in ice cold water because the molecules would not be moving" from first cell of 'dissolving time' column in possible results table.
  • "this experiment is inarcurate, as a professor of UBC i do not believe that this article should remain online." from below table. Freshstart 06:28, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wow this is pretty elaborate

I am always amazed at how complicated people want to make science, with many complicated steps. When I was studying science in school, we were buried in this sort of nonsense. And when I finally became a scientist (2 bachelors, 3 masters, PhD in physics, applied mathematics), I found out that this is not what scientists do at all. What scientists do is far more obvious and far simpler. There is no need to bury everyone with this huge load of crap. I am not sure how to retain all this hard work and still make it a bit more user friendly and simpler and also more accurate...--Filll 02:45, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
