with regards to quantum physics and other hard sciences. However, there are then people like Bruce Lipton or Jude Currivan that not only have doctoral degrees in these sciences, but have done the work, the research, involved in their fields. However, because they are also associated with the likes of us, they are automatically dismissed as purveyors of woo. At least, that's for what I read either on DU or some other blogs they also quote.

I agree that the "what if" scenarios are the way to get this going, to get people in the sciences thinking, pondering, imagining. We will just have to learn to dismiss the dismissers
