Unlike George Hammond's daydreams, General Relativity
and the second law of thermodynamics are falsifiable.

Of course the S.P.O.G. is "falsifiable". Because it is
an "experimentally verified" theory, therefore if any of the
myriad verifying experiments had failed, which none did, it
would be "falsified". Your missed Jeff.

What experiments, asswipe?
