You know, I get so tired of that smarmy BS...

Hummingbirds can't fly either........At least according to the "science" of areodynamics.

This is just a tired old variation of the "science proved a bumblebee cant fly" BS...

Its often brought up to put those know it all scientists in their place... usually the one tossing it out is an ignorant self-important fool attempting to demonstrate that his 'common sense' is still superior to those egg-head scientists...

The thing is the statement is complete bullshit.... please see http://www.sciencenews.org/articles/20040911/mathtrek.asp and educate yourself before spreading this nonsense further....

Maybe you didnt mean it in the way it is usually used but it is a lie I particularly hate, and the fact you put science in quotes made me think that you meant it in the way I described above...
