The railroad companies that merged to create what's left of the rail industry in the US are the ultimate evolution of "too big to fail" corporations. They've been kept alive/subsidized for almost 200 years now, an

One useful outcome of this debacle is that it exposed a loophole in the Great Lakes Water Resources Compact. Under that agreement, pumping water from the Great Lakes for industrial purposes is supposed to be disallowed, preventing e.g. chip

Exactly. This proposal entirely ignores human nature, and the author has obviously not done any research into the problem beyond being annoyed while waiting to exit an aircraft. There's this 2015 article on doing essentially what he&

It's not over yet, at least not definitively. Nature Magazine like every other source so far is basing its comments on the attempted replications using the leaked paper. It's considered fairly certain at this point that the pa

That's exactly what they say they're doing. They submitted the final paper and the sample(s) to APL for review. I don't think they have other samples to hand out. They haven't actually published yet officially... the o

Yet somehow those "SC people" issue this opinion without having seen the final paper nor the lab data on the original sample, which is presently being examined as part of the peer review process in SK?
