Quick, let's throw someone into an active volcano and then beg Pele to spark a revolution. It's worth a shot

One of my postdoc advisors told me "If you're going to be wrong, be wrong in print. That way you get two papers: one where you're wrong and one where you correct the record." (feel obliged to point out that I try to keep my wrong ideas out of print.)

Wait? How far can we take this? Continental drift meant t-rexes are only found in the western hemisphere… “Science Reveals that Lack of T-Rex’s may have helped spark the French Revolution.” Check the scientific data man! It’s true!
