You know, Max Planck was told not to pursue physics because there wasn't much left to discover anyways. By a physics professor. 150 years ago.
You're statement is based on incomplete knowledge. There is now way to know how much there's left to know.
What a stupid and misleading article. Water on the mills of "scientists don't know what they're talking about" conspiracy theorists when it's comparing two entirely different things. "Groupthink" my ass.
