This is stupid, this is like laypeople bitching when the weatherman calls for scattered showers and it does not rain in around one viewer's house.
It is true science cannot pinpoint the exact day the big bang happened, but they have damned good data that gives us a range. In cosmic time, that is like hitting the edge of a dartboard bullseye from a hundred yards away. You don't have to be dead center to be accurate.
I have lived in hurricane territory for the past 14 years. I have been through several hurricanes. There is a reason meteorologists and scientists who track these storms and use the word "cone".
