Dark "flows"?

Yet despite the new findings, the existence of the dark flow remains disputed. Charles Bennett, principal investigator of WMAP says the cluster analysis is not statistically significant. "There is no evidence for the large-scale dark flow, using all of the best data available."
Another pointless article?

"so-called "dark flow" is a sign that other universes nestle next door."

Talk about bastardizing the word "Universe".

Would not "universal rotation" require some sort of extra-"universal" reference point?

A bastardization by any other name would smell just as funky. . . ;)
It's all about perception.
