    I feel the same way. I’ve always assumed it’s because scientific information doesn’t change with time unless it was wrong to begin with. It somehow always ends up sticking to already existing information very well and getting the label “permanent”.

    Where are my keys? What did I have for dinner this week? Those have the “ethereal” label on it so it’s get thrown out at the first opportunity.
