Brown, it is understandable how you would make an amalgam between a researcher falsifying data in order to get millions of dollars in grant money with a failure to adequately document that the army handed out smallpox blankets. Fortunately, for those of us who are still in touch with reality, we understand that the first offense involves fraud--a crime--while the latter does not. Good luck in your harpooning expeditions. You'll need it.
