What science do you do?  You appear to be defending pure science from
the adulteration of philosophy of science.  I am not clear on what
your real point is.  Perhaps you feel you have stated it so clearly
that we should have no trouble understanding, yet you continue to
defend your point.

disclaimer: Maybe it is because you often take such an extreme
position that I feel compelled to antagonize you.  I hope you
appreciate this in the vein in which it is intended.
