>>Rather than an indictment of science and the peer review process, this is an illustration of what can happen when that process is intentionally circumvented. You get crapola like the USGS Python range map.

I know, that's what I said, or was trying to say. I wasn't "indicting" the peer review process. I was "indicting" those (individuals and organizations) that circumvent it. Not sure
why you think I was indicting anything else.

>>Want to know what REAL science can do? Just look around us at the technological, scientific and medical advances that make our modern society possible. Remember, barely more than a century ago we were basically all riding horses and dying from minor bacterial infections (usually before age 50)....


Brad, did you even read what I wrote? In the first or second line of my post I wrote "in the most scientifically advanced country..." I'm not criticizing science, I'm criticizing junk science. Please don't put words in my mouth.

Thanks,
Ed
