[net.physics] Galileo on FTL etc.

lew (08/12/82)

Magnificent titles and many grandiose promises attract the natural
curiosity of men and hold them forever involved in fallacies and
chimeras, without ever offering them one single sample of that
sharpness of true proof by which the taste may be awakened to know
how insipid is the ordinary fare of philosophy.
