Talk:Intelligence Intensification/Proofs

English Usage
A couple of web dictionary searches show that falsify as a synonym for disprove is valid, but it is not a common current usage in my experience. I know the use of "disprove" in the context of the module is especially unwanted (defining proof in terms of a derivate word would be a mistake!), so can someone suggest a better word of phrase.

 * I probably wrote falsify as it is the word usally used in this context in Swedish and since I knew the word existed in English. --DanielJanzon 21:19, 11 Sep 2004 (UTC)


 * I hear "falsifiable" used in the context of scientific hypotheses all the time. Nothing wrong with "falsify" here.  160.36.157.234 05:31, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC) (User:Tormod)

Scientific method
I'm adding a much more detailed version of the scientific method, if you have an objection to this, please raise it on this talk page


 * Personally I like it. Maybe it would be a good thing to make it an easier read. I think it's important that even those who aren't already familar with the concepts can read the chapter. I hope many people involved in new age cosmic foo foo will come across this book and increase their demand for proof. Maybe there is a way to include both styles (humorous half-crazy style and, possibly for some people, boring thorough approach naming the concepts with adequate names etc). --DanielJanzon 20:45, 27 May 2005 (UTC)


 * I'll try to work on making it more readable if I can find the time. What do you think about the section on inductive reasoning?
