Ahhhh.... I'm upset. No one recited my favorite warning sign for bogus science:

"It's A New Physics"

- Artabraham

7. The discoverer must propose new laws of nature to explain an observation.

7. The discoverer must propose new laws of nature to explain an observation.
A new law of nature, invoked to explain some extraordinary result, must not conflict with what is already known. If we must change existing laws of nature or propose new laws to account for an observation, it is almost certainly wrong.

I began this list of warning signs to help federal judges detect scientific nonsense. But as I finished the list, I realized that in our increasingly technological society, spotting voodoo science is a skill that every citizen should develop.


It was a smart move for MP to abandon all the tomfoolery that Loch Harris was pitching about x-rays sensing at 30 meters and magical "low atmospheric absorption windows" and real time detection. All which required a "new physics" explanantion.

The "new" and improved Loch/CDEX technology being reduced to a standard fluorometer utilizing special or "innovative" software applied to niche markets.
