Great, as always! Although I wonder what trouble the death of Needle Nose will cause?
Gotta say, Aaron is a moron. If we always let "experts" be the "leading voice" on topics, then we'd still be in the iron age. Germ theory would've died a quiet death. The Earth would still be the center of the solar system (as far as we believed anyway). Experts (at least the kind with credentials and authority) are just people who have thoroughly absorbed the approved dogma. Incapable of growth. Most innovation and scientific growth comes from "lunatics" and heterodox thinkers. And someone who reads as much as Aaron would know that, unless he's a complete imbecile. Aaron probably thinks we should still be worried about "miasmas" causing the plague. As every expert at the time insisted. Dolt.
