It is true that the success of an attempted revolution is determined a posteriori and then the winner writes the history, but it is important that the New Theory expresses a clear difference from the Old Theory, and this is what we do in our presentations. Science is not like politics geared by clever compromise, but as in religion the opposite of non-compromise with a clear distinction between Heaven and Hell.

Since I first heard of this theory through your Normat article I have been very fascinated by it and discussed it with dozens and dozens of people on a popular level but during the same time I have noticed the difficulty of getting "expert recognition" for it. Let's hope the theory gets some serious consideration this time. You say that change of a scientific paradigm is not a kids game and you are right. But yet I can't help suspecting that a somewhat less conflicting approach from the beginning could have made things easier. After all, (what turns out to be) new paradigms are generally not proclaimed beforehand but rather distinguished as a major shift retrospectively.Ola H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18373209959146714862noreply@blogger.com
