I grinned when I saw the title of the symposium was ‘Troublemakers’. I am here because I wrote ‘Protecting Paradise’ and in it I looked at the science around 1080. I explored some of the popular myths and fallacies around 1080, those intractable fallacies that do not go away. I was so intrigued that much to my editor’s concern I decided to find out why they are so intractable. Believe me that is a rabbit hole and I am going to take you as far down it as I can in 20 minutes.
