Never Say Prove Again!


I just finished grading your lab reports and for the most part they were impressive. However, the word "PROVE" has been officially banned from your scientific vocabulary (it never should have been there in the first place!).

In science you can never really PROVE anything; you can disprove a theory and you can find support for a hypothesis but you can't PROVE it. Hopefully this classy James Bond movie poster will help you remember.
