This list seems to have developed a recent penchant for semantic
argumentation!
I think Aristotle defined the word "science" (ie., its Greek equivalent)
as a body of knowledge organized in a logical fashion ( from premise to
conclusion, etc). In modern parlance the word has a variety of meanings.
I see no reason for the experimentalists (or the theorists) of any
particular field(s) to usurp it with vehemence.
