Could you please describe what you mean by Anecdotes? What distinguishes anecdotes from testimony of evidence?
Not to speak for Rob, but there's a big difference between "This happened (to me/to a friend/two thousand years ago)" (anecdote) and "This happened, and here's how you make it happen, and here's why it happened, and it will happen again if you do a, b, and c, and if you want to show it didn't happen, here's what you would need to prove, and other people who have studied this have read all of what happened and how and why it happened have agreed that based on the information here it is most likely it did happen for the reasons I've suggested and they're going to keep trying to make it happen again to be even more certain" (evidence) (or, shall we say, science)

Don't worry, my friend. If this be the end, then so shall it be.
