re: #281 Bagua

If there is not need for the research and they know the result in advance, then that would in fact be fraudulent research. Which I completely disagree with. They are doing so to:

“The proposed activity would provide:

1. Verifiable data sets starting from a common data-bank of unrestricted data at both monthly and finer temporal resolutions.”

Among other things, such as “comprehensive audit trails to deliver confidence in the results”

This is a massive and expensive project, if they are wasting money on duplication, then where is this work that is being duplicated? Waste of money on this scale is a huge scandal.

Which is what people are all complaining about here. Look at the link you provided up-thread. Second page. It outlines that the data exists from multiple studies and they all come to the same conclusion. This does say that it’s looking for a level of detail that wasn’t previously available though…
