Proposal
In textbooks, lectures, and in the mass media, radiometric dates are presented as though they are firmly established scientific procedures not subject to question or debate. Behind the scenes, however, we find quite a different story. As just one example, Skull 1470 has been K/Ar-dated to death, and the effort has been abandoned to use K/Ar to establish its age.
