Science! (?)

"After years without refrigeration" there won't be anything left but bone and a pile of dust... and perhaps a lingering whiff of carrion. "Science" in the 1950s was an intellectually slipshod affair at times. Hell, what am I saying?! It's mostly a running joke even today. Millions of people seriously believe, for example, that cow farts are melting the polar ice caps. Doesn't get any more laughably stupid than that, does it? Well, unless you count the "theory" that one third of the entire universe is invisible, untouchable and unmeasurable. "Daft" doesn't even begin to cover that one. But it pays the light bill for a bunch of over-educated introverts without marketable job skills, so they stick doggedly to it, all the while insisting that the man behind the curtain isn't part of the act.
