This would be great if it resulted in a reversal of established academics not wanting their names on papers unlessy they are conversant with the whole experiment and where integrally involved rather than the current practice of adding anyone who you so much as borrowed a piece of equipment from.

So I performed and experiment in a PhD program that was published. My name was not put on it but I got a nice thanks for mention at the end. That is one thing that is messed up with academic papers today. The "authorship". Beyond that though this experiment had been done before was inconclusive and im sure I know why. I saw the data and all the points where at one minute intervals and that was the protocol but I can tell you right now that it can't be done. You take the readings and count cells after you add a component to stop replication. You go round and round but there are a lot of steps. I recorded my time when I was able to record the data. at 55 second or 65 second or whatever the elapsed time was. I saw this a lot as a science major. Some folks just don't have a correct mind for science. They are not intentionally being dishonest but they want to fit things into these patterns like even spaced time and such. They fudge things so the graph looks pretty. All sorts of stuff. Even if the ones who make it through the programs are good about these things the experiments are not carried out by and large at that level.

meanwhile average folks can't afford modest homes. When I was young condos were cheap alternatives to free standing houses (ok except for luxury ones). Now they all claim to be luxury and I have no idea who manages to buy these things. Single family freee standing homes in an area you won't be shot is beyond anyone who works for a living.

wait wait wait. Does that mean carbon fiber bike frames are likely to bust in a crash after a few years??!!!

so the storage life assumes being under 1500 ft of water??? (edited. sorry guys was playing with settings and put the one that auto adds ats. going to take that back out.)

ty sir. that makes it not so bad. still I have had some bikes for decades. I was never able to afford carbon fiber anyway but now I think I will avoid even if it became cheap. sorta wish the carboard bike had become a thing though.

your own comment above to another show it was not ignored. syria only avoided bombings by an act of an elected body. Even still consequences did happen.

and to go further since there did seem to be a goodly amount of consequences to the ignored red line. Much of this seems to be more about proof than anything else:

"Western powers opted for the path of diplomacy instead. Assad’s government was forced to join the international Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) and a US-Russian agreement to dismantle Syria’s chemical weapons capability was signed in Geneva on September 14, 2013.

In August 2014, the White House hailed the destruction of 581 tons of sarin and 19.8 tons of mustard gas under the OPCW’s supervision.

Nevertheless, in August 2016, a UN and OPCW commission known as the Joint Investigative Mechanism (JIM) claimed that Syrian military helicopters had dropped chlorine on at least two places in northwestern Idlib province – in Talmenes in 2014 and Sarmine in 2015. Then in October 2016, another JIM report concluded that the Syrian military had carried out a chemical weapon attack, likely using chlorine, in Qmenas, also in Idlib, in March 2015.

But it was not until the April 4 attack on Khan Cheikhoun that the West decided to take military action. At least 83 people died in the air raid on rebel-controlled territory in Idlib province, their symptoms suggesting they were victims of a chemical attack."
