Promote all the experimental results that are consistent with ballistic theory, and dismiss all the ones that are not. It's called scientific fraud, of course. > > Henry Wilson... > > .......A person's IQ = his snipping ability.- Hide quoted text - > > - Show quoted text -

You put quotation marks around that. Who said it, and in what published reference?
