16. An apparently scientific argument is said to be _________ if it is based on assumptions that are known to be incorrect, or on theories that cannot be falsified or used to predict anything. In science and philosophy, the second meaning is known as the principle of falsifiability. It has also come to mean science that is well-meaning and based on current scientific knowledge, but can neither be used for prediction nor falsified. Such conjectures are non-scientific, even when they are spoken in scientific language. The phrase has been applied to aspects of the super string theory of physics on the grounds that, although mathematically elegant, it provides (as of now) neither predictions nor tests. The phrase was coined by the early quantum physicist Wolfgang Pauli, who was known for his colorful objections to incorrect or sloppy thinking. Rudolf Peierls writes that "a friend showed [Pauli] the paper of a young physicist which he suspected was not of great value but on which he wanted Pauli's views. Pauli remarked sadly, 'It is ____________.' "

Critic Herbert Stone complained, " . . . neither participant is physically attractive and the spectacle of their prolonged pasturing on ________________was hard to beat when only life size.
