The Congressman's letter opened, but I didn't read it. Maybe I should have. Let me know. It strikes me that the dems in Congress are feeling their oats.

I find it odd that a government that would fund such artful expressions as feces painting and other such gutter trash in the field of liberal arts would come down so hard on someone who, at least at first appearance, has sweater blood and felt the pain of at least getting a real man's degree in either engineering or the science.

Then to look at the scumbags in DC idolizing the fabrication of global warming and their savior Al Whore is utterly disgusting. These people who took high school science and even boiled water would have to climb a thousand foot ladder to kiss the butt of anyone who goes into the retched field of engineering or science

Believe me, the current state of funding and the manner in which these people are treated will be looked upon in the future as the down fall of American competitiveness - then these nincompoops can pay the Chinese to boil water for them.

It's all about tearing down Purdue, bring it down to most other colleges level. Which is stink.

Why is it the federal government's job to make sure a university appropriately investigated a citizen who reported on research?

I suppose because the government gave them money for research -- but that begs the question, why is it the federal government's right to take my money and give it to a university for research?

"Eugenie Samuel Reich published a series of four articles in Nature which came as close as possible to accusing Purdue physicist Rusi Taleyarkhan of committing fraud without actually saying so... Reich's series of four stories in Nature was replete with innuendo and groundless speculation, building a house of cards on which to base the thesis that her journalistic investigation would lead to 'the end of bubble fusion.' The core of the Reich/Nature allegation was based on speculations made by physicist Seth Putterman and his associate Brian Naranjo at UCLA that an on-hand source of Californium-252 was responsible for the novel results claimed by Taleyarkhan... Taleyarkhan is far too experienced a scientist to make such a careless mistake: allowing contamination from on-hand source of Californium-252 to interfere with the results. The very clear implication was that Taleyarkhan had spiked his experiment intentionally."
