I'm glad to hear that NI donated a PCMCIA card. Did they go out on a limb and say (as with Cold Fusion) "There is an unknown physical event"? Nope.
I trust physicists who are skeptical. I don't trust physicists who are pathologically skeptical, who refuse to look at the data in the same way that Galileo's detractors refused to look through the telescope. And yes, I do think it's because of their greed, self-interest, hubris and various other things.
