Obviously this is not the mode of science. The report provided little to follow upon via scientific investigation. It was more like a piece of long-form journalism, with important details left out, as is often done in journalism. To a certain extent one is forced to take it or leave it. There is little in the way of a satisfying answer to the question of how this report is different from the periodic tests conducted in connection with BLP. Eric
