I agree with everything, but one point. I emphatically do not agree with the "evolution is a fact" criticism. Dr. Booker, your "slip is showing." Don't tell me you believe a scientific theory goes from "theory to fact." And, don't tell me (please) that you think that evolution is not occurring "as we speak." Evolution is an established fact and it is a scientific theory like the "theory of gases" and "atomic theory." Other than the one gaffe, the review was on target and your Procrustes analogy was perfect. A great review, even much better than the one I had in mind. I agree with everything, but one point.
