re: #502 SixDegrees
I suspect that Charles might make an exception if someone were to produce a clear, indisputable example of deliberate abuse, or even of a substantive error leading to demonstrably false results, so long as it was properly documented. It would probably be a good idea to ask permission first, of course.
I have the package of data; I got it the first day the story broke.
I’ve looked through a lot of it — not all, but a lot. There is absolutely no evidence in there of any wrongdoing. None.
The criminal who stole this stuff deliberately picked out the worst things he could find — and there’s nothing there, except scientists acting like emotional human beings.
The reason I’m so completely sure this is a phony scandal is because I looked into it myself, in depth.
