	WPC-AT-cs.strath (no name given) wrote the following: "A science 
does not tend to reject the theories of
its founders, - it extends them to deal with
new 
conditions." I don't think that Einstein's relativity theory extended 
Newton's laws to new conditions. The quote from Hawkins does not say that 
a science simply extends its founders to new conditions. Einstein's 
theory provided new terms and formulations for science
