“A scientific man ought to have no wishes, no affections, - a mere heart of stone.”
Charles Darwin
“Swap; I wish I did, for; I'm glad I did. ”
Richard 'Grimesy' Grimes
“On the ordinary view of each species having been independently created, we gain no scientific explanation”
“We live in a time when the words impossible and unsolvable are no longer part of the scientific community's vocabulary. Each day we move closer to trials that will not just minimize the symptoms of disease and injury but eliminate them.”
Christopher Reeve
“A safe landing is obviously the highest priority, because without a safe landing, there is no scientific return ... But we also want the site to have the highest possible scientific return.”
David Spencer
“You can't assume something's dangerous just because there is no scientific evidence that it is. But it does leave open this question ... There's the potential for adverse effects to come out in some sort of study or an actual case. Potentially, it could backfire on them.”
Mark Kantor
“There is no scientific evidence that escaped farmed salmon interferes with the wild salmon gene pool. Wild salmon have been breeding for thousands of years and have survived. Farmed salmon have been bred for 30 years and it is unlikely that they are going to overpower the wild salmon gene pool. We are not in business to let salmon escape; our business depends on keeping them in the cages. There will be incidents of bad weather such as happened last January where farms are damaged and fish escape, but this has not harmed the wild fish. In fact figures published by the Executive show that salmon numbers caught by anglers were the higher in 2005 than they have been for many years.”
