Just what I meant to add here -- you beat me to it!

I'm reminded of a truism: "If an elderly, well-respected scientist says something is possible, they are likely correct. If they say something is not possible, they are likely wrong."

But 'likely' doesn't mean 'positively' or 'absolutely'. Old wankers are right sometimes.
