However, scientific fraud is an unforgivable offense against the enterprise of research, and in this case, it completely invalidates the selection of Dr. Hwang for inclusion in the Scientific American 50.

Dr. Hwang’s deceit misled Scientific American along with the international scientific community. We regret, in writing about his work and awarding him a place among key technology leaders, having unknowingly misinformed readers about his actual accomplishments. We are also deeply concerned about the lasting damage that this fraud may do to the reputation of stem cell research, which we continue to regard as a highly worthy endeavor generally pursued by scientists keeping to a far higher standard of honesty and ethics.

Faking research gets you booted. Dr. Woo Suk Hwang, you suck wang.

Damn straight. It's simply not possible to fake science. Someone will try to repeat your experiments and discover your fraud.

Sucking wang is bad...why?

In religion, you would have to make a show of respecting the fact that his beliefs are equally valid.

Or call him a heretic and burn him at the stake/kick him out of the church and watch a wierd offshoot spring up.

Oh.

That's what I was wondering as well. I'm sensing some possible homophobia here.

Because you'll dislocate your jaw and tear your cheeks open trying to fit a computer in your mouth.

I'm a bad person. My twisted mind created a perverted interpretation of this statement...

Nothing wrong with sucking wang if one likes it. It would be, ahem, distasteful to have to do it if one didn't like performing that particular act though.

Would you call someone who found eating brussel sprouts to be "yucky" to be a sproutaphobe?

I call those people "Republicans". Same with people who hate broccoli.

Only of you bite off more than you can chew....:D

They only do that to people who didnt fake their results. liars arent a threat to religion, only those who know the truth.

Oh.

Or what if you don't like wang?
