Well I don't have pet rabbits but what do you mean the Easter Bunny
isn't real?
Where's your scientific proof for this assertion?  :O)

Seriously, Wirt, I can understand what you are implying now based on
your last post and I appreciate that you enjoy reading SF also.
Still, I'm not sure that SF gets all its ideas from Science and I feel
that concepts such as anti-gravity, wormholes, matter transportation
etc while not being scientifically proven facts (as far as I know),
are enthusiastically treated by many SF writers to the extent that
some of their ideas might well trigger channels of investigation by
scientists. 'nuff said.

Cheers,

John Dunlop
