You still haven't got my original point have you? It's not an issue for
science. It's an issue for history. That was my point.

All sciences have a history that is relevant, unless you prefer to
think that this or that scientist just got this idea one day.

Sorry about the Kennedy brothers, I'm not a Kennedy fan. RFK was shot
by Sirhan in the kitchen of an LA hotel as he was leaving a primary
rally. Not in lobby. JFK was assassinated in his limo at Dealy Plaza
in Dallas by, a gunman in Texas Schoolbook Depository Bldg, Lee Harvey
Oswald an activist who supported communist causes such as handing out
pro-Castro leaflets on streets in New Orleans. He immigrated to Russia
after leaving marine corp, got married, returned to US. Opinion: a
chronic ne'er do well like Ted Kennedy. To complete a historical
trilogy, M.L. King was assassinated on the balcony outside his second
story room at a Memphis motel.
