Rocket science has been mythologized all out of proportion to its true difficulty.
Novels written by university professors and set in the groves of academe are far more rigidly predictable than anything but the most routine science fiction novel, but they have escaped the stigma of being labeled as genre.
There is no significant man-made Global Warming underway and the science on which the computer projections of weather chaos are based is badly flawed.
The media thinks that you have to make science sexy and concentrate on themes such as rivalry and the human issues.
