That's news to me! I always thought it was science.

That does not surprise me one bit, most QT students are under the same delusion. In the old Physics Forums when Integral was in control, there was a lengthy debate on this subject. Eventually I did the research and publish a reply with all the relevant references. The administrators conceded that I was correct and closed the debate down. That was in the days of Windows 3.1 and I no longer have the paper. It should be in the archives under 'Theory development-Why all the nutcases' ,but this does not appear to be available any longer. Circumstances do not permit me to put in any more time on this at present but, if you do the research I can assure you the answer is there.

PS I was cheating slightly, one of my daughters has a masters degree in sociology and was a tutor at that time (now a Program leader) so I had plenty of professional help.
