The problem, therefore, is not a trivial one.\nThat badgers and rabbits dig burrows, eat certain things, and drop little turds all over the place—these are observations that our ancestors could make, and probably did make, when they lived in their caves 40 or 50 thousand years ago.\nThat plants grow roots and absorb chemicals from soil and subsoil has also been known for quite a while. In fact, in Milan, where I lived part of my Italian life, legend has it that Leonardo da Vinci experimented with this idea and dug some sinister substances into the soil around a peach tree, in order to see whether one could grow poisoned peaches.\nHow strange, you might say, that the scientists who direct the Hanford Reserve did not think of what badgers, rabbits, and tumbleweed do, when they lead their normal and quite well-known lives.—I shall try to show that, given the logic of science, this is not surprising. But first, let me tell another story, a story I am sure you have heard before, but it illustrates a slight variation from the first.","highlights":Ӷ^"jQuery3210112638862274719642":^°°Ӻ,"text":"","order":"mw-content-text","category":"Prämisse3","data_creacio":1580302403603°
