Why do people consider today's scientific "fact" as "fact" when we have a written history of scientific "fact" that turned out to be incorrect as years passed?

Since something only becomes scientific "fact" when it gets wide acceptance by the peer review process, such a process does nothing to prove the theory as "fact" to a godhead.

Also any new "facts" will not easily be accepted into the scientific community if they contradict previous science, which is why it takes years for new "facts" to take the place of old "facts."

So why do people put so much stock into science, when it is clearly just a collection of "best guess" theories that are accepted as custom allows and subject to change at anytime by a persuasive academic article?

As we grow more and more dependent on technology we lose the ability to survive without it. What will happen if we can no longer produce the materials and power required to run our techno-society. This could result from a devastating global war or simply over time as we exhaust our resources and expand our population.

Could any of you survive a nomadic existance? Could you fend for yourselves? Could you fight for your family's survival?

Please share your thoughts.

I just looked at the weather forcast for Barrow Alaska. I see that the is setting after 11PM. I understand that being within the arctic circle they have very long days in summer and very short days in winter. I was suprised that the sun is still setting so late. Does the change from long days to short days occur suddenly near the Autumnal Equinox?
