[/QUOTE]
Pseudo means "fake". It's made up science. The term is usually used to imply that someone is using made up scientific speculation that seems like it could work on paper as if it were a proven fact. it's used by either snake oil salesmen trying to convince people that their latest thing will miraclously cure everything that ails you, or honestly by Sci Fi/Fantasy writers who want make up something that will sound sensible in order to flesh out a good plot device. (I.E Mass Shadow Generators, Interdictor Ships, how the Force works--all that)
