A true scientist has no faith in science, he merely follows the currant most likely theory (all science is theory) until a more likely one come along, the rules of physics might be overturned tomorrow and a scientist would have no problem with this.
Jag I want you to know you gained a ton of respect for saying that. It amazing to me how many of my friends try and argue that theories are not set in stone and that there is no possible way that anything can change them. That's one problem I have with most college physics classes here is they put so much emphasis on the math that they fail to teach the theories behind them, let alone discuss and debate them.
