Are we losing science to anecdotes and pseudoscience in the Information Age?

Blogs, facebook, and special interest groups seem to be conquering all. I'm kind of sad about it.

    I feel like true science and rationality will prevail in the long run, but I do find the current supremacy of propaganda and misinformation to be depressing.

    I kinda look at it like all of the other historical backlashes against major advances in science. It's happened before and it will likely happen again.

    It's definitely annoying to be living in one, though.

    No worries. Blogs & Facebook are electronic scrapbooking.
