Despite the drama of the paradigm shift, science is more the pointillist process of adding or replacing facts, pixel by pixel. This replacement can be an uphill battle, basically consisting of saying, "Well yes, this is how things work.. .but not exactly." And with enough of those replacements, the overall picture changes. Such a change is occurring now with regulators of neuroinflammation, and the work of Frank et al., on page XXX (Frank et al., 2009) is an important contribution to this changing picture.
