That's the problem, Tom, it's not all fun stuff. People hear this crap and believe it, then when you try to correct them with the proper knowledge, they get up on their high horses and get defensive about it. Or, they try and rationalise it and they just don't have the background to do so. It's bad enough with adults falling for rubbish like this but it's the kids you have to worry about.
It's nothing more than snake oil pseudoscience these fools go about sprouting. Yet they pass it off as legitimate science and fool far too many people. They give anything science a bad name and when those that actually know something about it try to explain things, we're the ones that cop the flak from the public, or are just ignored. People want to remember that if it wasn't for those few that understand science, the rest of them would still be living in caves.
