Some science confuses me.
Big science, I mean, and the numbers that are involved in it. Like, sometimes I will read about a discovery or an achievement - and I am duly impressed and astounded... The confusion comes from knowing there are people who are so very brainy. I feel like a caveman by comparison.

Alt: Yes, and Tractors and Combine Harvesters. Oo-arr.

They make it up
Then they get other similarly "brainy" men to accredit their books with a foreword so as to deter any potential readers from going "Hang on... this is bollocks!". There's basically a cabal of a couple of dozen men who agreed a while back that a better use for their massive brains than discovering the secrets of the universe, would be pretending they had and saying each other was clever to shift units.

Quod Erat Demonstrandum is actually Latin for "fuck you, I'm rich"
