Challenges to Nereid

Has science taken a wrong turn? If so, what corrections are needed? Chronicles of scientific misbehavior. The role of heretic-pioneers and forbidden questions in the sciences. Is peer review working? The perverse "consensus of leading scientists." Good public relations versus good science.

May i point out that the fallacy, argumentum ad verecundiam, appeal to authority, was not used by nereid. Her argument must stand on it's own. Her education, profession, or martial arts skills are irrelevant to her argument.... ;)

Was this done? I would like to see it. Can someone help me find where Nereid discussed why Robitaille's COBE analysis fails?

Despite repeated reminders, she's never followed through on this one.
