Jed, I was being facetious, I agree with you totally. It really looks like a rewrite of other articles done twenty years ago then left to sit in a desk drawer until recently rediscovered and submitted. The authors are not chemists or physics oriented but rather teachers interested in making a point about the scientific method/ethics. They made a poor choice for an example and I wonder if they even ran it by the Berkely physics department. Of course if I bring it to their attention then I am just being biased but no more so than this out of date article. Regards Fran Credits and collaborators
