>what has been referred to as my curiosity for investigation has landed me in a difficulty where I found so much junk that I'm overwhelmed. . . . I didn't realize how MUCH there was.
>I found things that even more people believe, such as that we have some knowledge of how to educate. There are big schools of reading methods and mathematics methods, and so forth, but if you notice, you'll see the reading scores keep going down--or hardly going up--in spite of the fact that we continually use these same people to improve the methods.
>If you make a theory, for example, and advertise it, or put it out, then you must also put down all the facts that disagree with it, as well as those that agree with it.
>In summary, the idea is to give all of the information to help others to judge the value of your contribution; not just the information that leads to judgement in one particular direction or another.
>A great deal of their difficulty is, of course, the difficulty of the subject and the inapplicability of the scientific method to the subject.
Feynman tried to warn us, and we didn't listen. We just doubled down, and now science is irreparably harmed.
