摘要

Ever since my undergraduate days, I have believed that our prestigious scientific societies are there to serve and promote science. Now, however, they appear to be set on usurping it. To quote Thomas Huxley, "Belief, in the scientific sense of the word, is a serious matter and needs strong foundation." That strong foundation can be provided only by the profound examination of nature by individual scientists and its assessment by their peers. For a committee, however distinguished its membership, to pontificate on scientific matters is not only hubris, it is also dangerous. Let individual scientists speak and let committees be silent.
