On Science


Time to test and retest the properties of all testable materials and properties. I suggest that basic testable materials be re-tested using modern technology and certify the results. Melting and boiling points, conductivity, hardness, and all physical properties of materials should be re-tested. Anything that is testable should be re-tested. Peer review is important but unfortunately, this system does not always work, as is shown during the "cold fusion" episode of the mid 1980's, when many distinguished universities were confirm the findings of the two cold fusion scientists, only to have to backtrack and withdraw their findings when it turned out that cold fusion, as described, did not exist. I suspect that there are many "findings" that have crept into science books, after researchers have spent their lifetime experimenting, and only to find that their efforts have been in vain. It is difficult for most people to admit failure and this may cause some to either exaggerate or to provide only a one sided view point. It is time to retest everything. ---Frank X. Didik 2001
