[ExI] CRACKPOTS (was electoral college)

[Will Steinberg]

What's wrong with a nose piercing?  That's tame.

Y'all come off as a bunch of reactionaries.  Do you really forget what it
was like to have older adults naysay the trends you were taking part in,
only to have those trends become the mainstream?

The world's greatest scientific geniuses, from Newton to Einstein, were
spiritual people.  Science itself emerged from philosophy.

Yet the scientific community today is often obsessed with believing their
models are reality, even though the only constant this whole time has been
the disproving of past models.

Maybe that's why you guys only produced a Hawking, not a Newton or
Einstein.  Thank god for the youth.
