:Based on KSorenson's remarks and what I know about the curricula at schools I've attended, physicists are indeed taught about it.  It seems a stretch to say that the falsifiability is "undeniable" when in fact every editor except you has denied it. --[[User:MarkGall|MarkGall]] 23:15, 12 November 2009 (EST)
