Get back with me when you have actually used a computer model let alone built one. What you think about models and what is actually true are far different. Models are always simplifications of reality just as newtonian physics and the ideal gas law are. Doesn't mean they aren't useful or that they don't do a reasonable job of approximating the big picture. Approximate models are in every day use in many applications despite what Larry claims.
