Wouldn't it be nice if you used the word theory with the correct scientific connotation on a board that deals with science? Why use "theory" to mean wild guess on a board where it is usually taken to mean well tested explanation for observed facts? Or is it that you don't actually know what the word theory means in a scientific context? I'll give you a hint - it doesn't mean guesswork.
Sorry, gallo. I didn't mean a "wild guess," more like a bundle of hypotheses. And they are not at all consistent are they? No need for the scorn...
