The straw man here is that all science is based on flimsy off the top of your head equations and not decades of data, models, and open debating results. The scientists I know are skeptical as hell.

I grew up being fascinated by science because of Carl Sagan's Cosmos. I sure miss his work and I think the world does as well.
