The question isn't can or can't. The
question is how well, and whether
closer collaboration would result
in a significantly more efficient

As far as scientists collaborating,
I'm on a paleoanthro mailing list
that's discussing Homo Florensis.
You can just see the knives being
sharpened and targets being drawn
on people's backs.
