Dr. Brin, in one of your recent blog posts you mention the article about
dark energy but not the paper about dark matter. This is confusing,
because the paper on dark matter is the much more interesting of the
two, seeing as it doesn't rely on any might-be's or other supposition's,
but rather takes existing data and matches it against the current MOG
theory, and shows how the theory matches the data, as is. MOND/TeVeS
may be dead theories, but it appears MOG is still a viable alternative
to Dark Matter.
