I looked at the comments and they quoted his original calculation. Seems he forgot to use PSIA. I recently corrected DIPLOMAT a few posts earlier.

Then it should have been mentioned rather than attempting to wipe the original URL out of existence and sweeping the entire opinion under the rug. If the chair of physics at BC forgets PSIA and goes on record when you might so easily have the formula in your back pocket, it should be addressed.

Something like "after originally stating that......the professor acknowledged an error in his formula and now states that...."

I can't remember if he actually stated the formula he used in the original article. I'm not really sure that he did. Maybe.

Two days ago, the Herald presents him as an expert saying that it couldn't have occurred. 24 hours later, they present him as an expert saying it could have occurred while wiping away all mention of his previous conclusion. No mention about why he must have screwed up so royally previously. No explanation to the people that read his original remarks. It stinks. Just like this whole situation.

According to a comment, it was in the original photograph.
