CollegeOTR misleads on Taleyarkhan

By Lawrence B. Ebert, Esq.

Paul Tassi (OTR Editor) ran a story on "bubble fusion" under the headline: Purdue Scientist Caught Forging Soundwave Energy Research.

The Purdue folks found Taleyarkhan involved in the corroborative research AND guilty of having a gratuitous co-author. If academics were routinely strong up for those two offenses, we would run out of lampposts.
