As a professional geologist/geophysist.....
Hello, Gerald....from a fellow geologist

I feel for those scientist that can't get their papers past the "establishment". It just goes to show you that no matter how rigorous and scientifically sound your paper might be, if you don't agree with the status quo, you might as well go play in the mud. There's so much politics and academic hubris within the scientific community, especially in physics and such, that it's a wonder any progress is made. They deny it, but they're just as myopic and one eyed as priests in any religion.

As a matter of fact, you could say that science has become the new religion.
