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.

I wonder how long until they integrate an electrodynamics module? In case anyone wants to play with something OTHER than gravity... PIC on the desktop would be an amusing toy to play with.
