That's pretty glib dismissal of the work of millions of brilliant people, etherreal. It's popular to quote the greats such as Einstein, Newton, Oppenheimer, Pauling, Crick, Feynman. What seems seldom noted is that they worked within the scientific system. They subscribed to the academic community and peer review. Revolutionary as they may have been.
