True, but I try not to change the title of the articles I post. Normally they are as much a part of the issue as the body of the text itself. Here the story might well be that he is shrouding his past short comings in accusing the goverment of doing what he himself is doing.

I also though caution that it is proper in science for a person to revise their earlier finidings. If he has continued to study the subject he should either find more support for his earlier hypothesis, or change his hypothesis. If he did not do so that would make him even worse. I agree with an earlier poster that said the government does hold a heavy hand over scientists in this country, but that comes from most of the money coming from government. Sad, but true.

I was merely pointing out the irony in the title that was chosen by the author or editor.

I apologize for failing to make it clear that I did not think you gave the article the title.

I usually try to make it clear I am responding to the author, by naming him or her, but I was too lazy to do more than an unsuccessful, cursory search for the author's name.
