My experiment: I got 200 grass-hoppers, placed one at a time on a table, said "Jump" and then let it go. In 95% (+/- 2%), the insects jumped. I then repeated the experiment, but this time, I broke off the large pair of hind legs just before I said "Jump". In 100%, they did not jump.

This experiment was repeated numerous times by myself and other scientists all over the world. The results were essentially the same.

I therefore concluded that grass-hoppers hear through their hind legs. That's my hypothesis. Actually, it's a theory. It's thoroughly testable, scientifically falsifiable, and it makes accurate predictions. Do you agree with my theory?

(In case you're wondering what this question is doing in this section, I am wondering how many people make the scientific method their god).

Actually the result of the experiment shows that you are a moron.

I'd be more impressed if the grasshoppers obeyed the 'Stay' command. Grasshoppers move by jumping, and they're generally moving.

Stay in remedial science, you have lots left to learn.

Maybe it's proof of reincarnation! Illogical people like to talk through their butts... and they like to hear themselves talk... so if they were to become insects...

Nah. I'm still very Atheist. Chaulk that up any way that pleases you... since you will, anyway.

You are not a very good scientist.

What is your point?... That people can do bad science?
