Talk:Quasi-empirical method

Problems with this text:
- Hard scientists are also concerned with the reliability of these methods to some degree, but only in fields (e.g. string theory) where direct experimental invalidation (i.e. finding counter-examples) is difficult or impossible. In such circumstances a scientist falls back on the same quasi-empirical methods as mathematicians.
At best there needs to be another example. It's not difficult or impossible to experimentally falsible string theory. String theory makes (or at least should make) some easily testable predictions about the universe.
