craig, it isn't my version of real science, it's the accepted definition of science and what is meant by science when it's discussed by scientists and historians of science. It isn't my invention. You can certainly have your own views about it but it makes discussion impossible.
I did not get back to you because my answer would have made no sense to anyone who has alternative views of scientific methodology, "proof" and falsification. All this stuff is well-defined and it isn't my definition.
And I was talking about the oft-observed violation of the "law" of conservation of matter that occurs in student labs in organic synthesis and you somehow bring in "philosophy of biochemistry"
There is no such discipline as the "philosophy of biochemistry" and what the hell has biochem got to do with labs in organic synthesis and the conservation of matter?
