==Source for lack of certitude in science?==
The current article states
"Scientists in the past tended to discount claims of Northern Lights, blaming such stories on drunken sailors, marsh gas, or the planet Venus, but these days the Northern Lights are accepted by the scientific community. This demonstrates the lack of certitude in science."
Is there a source for this statement? Seems a bit suspect to me, since you can generally look up in a clear night sky in winter pretty much anywhere in Northern Europe or Canada and see the Northern Lights.
