If you think the thoughts of great scientists and engineers like Buckminster Fuller (Former president of the Mensa Society) and Carl Sagan are unwarranted in a place like hackernews then you should find a new forum. Do you have anything to contribute to this discussion?
Edit:
"The argument from authority (Latin: argumentum ad verecundiam) also appeal to authority, is a common argument form which can be fallacious, such as when an authority is cited on a topic outside their area of expertise, when the authority cited is not a true expert."
Please do tell who might be a true expert on science and technology as it relates to societal organization, if not Fuller or Sagan.
