    A propos of nothing other than the subject of "psychology" ...

    My catch-all term for describing just about everything
    in life, the universe and everything, MoQ included,
    is "Evolutionary Psychology".

    The word "scientific" fills me with dread in the proposal here.
    Does everything still need to be "scientific" (ie politically correct)
    to be taken seriously these days ?
