Quote from kut2k2:
Although mathematics is often called "the queen of sciences", you can't really compare it to hard sciences like physics and chemistry. Pure mathematicians pride themselves on making mathematical advances that have no immediately obvious real-world applications. And mathematics doesn't have theories, it has theorems. Big difference.
By contrast, a scientific theory is only good if it adequately explains real phenomena: observations and experimental results in the real world.
What about Special Relativity? Aren't the still working on proving that it is true? I read somewhere that they just found out that Einstein's concept of "gravity" was correct. There is no gravitational force, but actually the bending of space, or something like that. Again, I am no expert.
Other traders (my competition) are mentally unable to grasp the most obvious stuff.
