Perhaps you'll let the little racist princess "Jet" know this. She
denied that science is a part of human culture. She tries to lie her
way out of it now by making a nebulous claim about "context" (and, of
course, never backing up her claim with any sort of evidence).
But then, she also thinks that Usenet subject lines are, inherently,
"facts".

Tell it to the Chinese and Japanese.

That's a rather eurocentric attitude, wouldn't you say? Other
cultures (Chinese, Egyptian, Mayan, etc). surely used variations of
scientific method, but perhaps not as refined as it is today.
I must remind you. You failed to characterise scientific method as
"patriarchal", didn't you? After all, it doesn't allow a lot of
leeway for the feminist-ways-of-knowing.
