Interesting. You quote a blog entry from Jed Rothwell (now haven’t I heard that name before?) to support your post. Interesting that the article you linked wasa ‘When Scientists Sin’ talking about scientific scams. One quote from the article:
“Other cases are not so clear. Martin Fleischmann and Stanley Pon’s “discovery” of cold fusion, Goodstein concludes, was most likely a case of scientists who “convince themselves that they are in the possession of knowledge that does not in fact exist.” This self-deception is distinctly different from deliberate deception.”
Done with you. You went off the deep end.
Mountains, molehills, all that.
