- cs702 15y agoI just looked and it turns out this link has already been submitted to Reddit, where it gathered fewer votes -- and generated fewer comments -- than on HN: http://www.reddit.com/r/science/comments/pvctl/journals_warned_to_keep_a_tight_lid_on_diesel http://www.reddit.com/r/science/comments/pvctl/journals_warn... The general public just can't -- or doesn't want to -- invest the time & effort required to learn about and pass judgment on these kinds of situations. Arguably, this is what allows businesses, lobbyists, and others to get away with unethical behavior.
