I can't disagree with what Dave blogged yesterday.  Still, all of us editors are somewhat different, and it is the luck of the draw who you get when you send a submission to   Electric Spec.   Recently, I rejected a story that did not make sense.  The laws of physics were violated and   if one were to accept the premises of the story, earth would be uninhabitable.     Personally, I get very cranky when the laws of physics are violated.  The other editors probably don't care as much.  However, if a story is internally inconsistent that's an automatic rejection.
Thus, writers, please write stuff that makes sense. :)

FYI, I always send good stories with physics to our resident physicist for fact-checking. So don't think you're getting off easy just because you're getting this most unscientific editor
:D
