Re: PSEUDO-SCIENCE ?

Here at Cal State Fullerton we have a department of Geological Sciences. I
have no problem with that. Judge the disciplines by what they do and how
they do it, not by what they call themselves. Such intellectual snobbery
serves no useful purpose.

Oops, It should have been "Geoscience" versus "Geology".

Does anybody know the history of the name "Earth Science",
as opposed to a very respectable name "Geology"?
