I agree Zan, but frequently, and regrettably, it is rarely promulgated in that manner.
Take for example the TV series 'Walking with Dinosaurs'.
Very entertaining but long on statements and short on facts, with a quite astonishing amount of guesswork promoted as proven.
Inevitably this results in back tracking in the future when new facts arise, books can be out of date almost before they are published.
Recently we were also treated to a serious comment that Stonehenge was a Stone Age A & E department.
My suspicion bump begins working overtime when many theories are promoted as 'proven', or people start fiddling figures to fit their theories.
Why for example has the UN erased the MA Warm period and the 'Little Ice Age' from their graphs? If they are so certain of their facts why is this sort of thing necessary?
Also of course they do their argument, which may prove to be correct, no service what so ever with scare tactics that fail to materialise.
