Poll for the scientists

Yes i would publish it. I even have one ready to publish tomorrow... wait what... ack..... NOoo NOo..

the EEC alliance has taken over my home and is hodling my cat hostage. Dont trust what i say next.... I do have the evidence... Poor poor fluffy...
oops sorry i mean i dont have anything.. I was um... choaking on some pop corn... yes...i

I would. And I would feel AWESOME.

My undergrad major was in Cognitive Science, does that count?

Why in the world would I throw away a Nobel prize by not publishing it?

If I found such evidence? (Why, I wanna be an evolutionary biologist when I grow up. Who better to disprove evolution? )

First I'd be very, very surprised.

Then, probably, very, very excited. And obsessed with it for life

Yes, it would definitely get published.

How many people named Steve would publish the evidence?

Once I'd regained conciousness, I'd publish it. Then I'd sit back and take my place alongside Newton, Darwin, Einstein, Curie, and all the other geniii (plural of genius? )

Of course I would publish it. It would be a huge revolution for almost every earth science and biological science.

That being said, I don't think it will be found.

I just want to compliment you on your profile picture. Is the question mark rly the only change?

thanks , yeah, I just added the question mark to which you probably already know the brand name of those books are O'Reilly books.

Sure aslong as it isn't completely absurd and is based on supernatural events that can't be empirically proven.

e.g no religious [wash my mouth][wash my mouth][wash my mouth][wash my mouth][wash my mouth][wash my mouth][wash my mouth][wash my mouth] is ever going to convince me that Evolution is wrong, but if the evidence has been peer-reviewed and is empirical, logical and has been observed neutrally. Then yes.

I'd add a true chimera to this. Finding something like a griffin would pretty much destroy the theory of evolution.

Or observing a cat turn into a dog, Pokemon-style, as creationists are so fond of saying "has never been observed so evilutioin is wrong lolz!!!!111!!"

Scientist. Voted "yes".

Yes...and further more, hell yes!

No faster way to get famous than to disprove a long-standing paradigm. It'd get me up there with Einstein and Bohr.

You'd think with all the fame that would accompany overturning evolution that its detractors would actually attempt some scientific research with the goals of disproving it, but nooo....they decide to spend their money on bad movies and lawyers instead.

This scientist voted yes as well.

Yes I would publish; and then I would invite you all to my Nobel Prize night out.

Somehow I'm getting flashbacks from when I attended an ACS meeting in New Orleans many years ago... drunk scientists wearing "Experiment with a Chemist" t-shirts out partying, tossing beads left and right...

Not a sight for the fainthearted.

I'm a classical archaeologist, so the chances of me finding facts which would discredit evolution are zero.

Good thread. Way to make a point.

Are you creationists convinced that we're not lying to suit ourselves yet?


Probably not.

While as a working chemist, it is frightfully unlikely that I would actually find anything. But certainly, if such evidence were to fall at my feet, so to speak, you bet your sweet bippy I would publish.
