That was the underlying inspiration for much of H.P. Lovecraft's work.

And according to this article, the majority of published scientific studies are wrong.

Well that's a rather defeatist attitude.

Well, in Lovecraft's cosmos, part of that "placid island of ignorance" was humanity's quaint notion that scientific "law" as we understood it was universally applicable, when "in reality" human knowledge was quite narrow and localized. The further you went from Earth, the more things you encountered that shouldn't exist, according to our concepts.

Re: OT: Study Reveals Flaw in Black-Hole Theory
Sorry, I havn't been greeting newbies. There was this whole space where I didn't even visit because I wasn't playing SEV and even now I'm not playing much, so I'm not posting much.
But, anyone who wants cheese can ask for some. 
* Waves hello at all the newbies.
