I haven’t seen someone confess to this type of science fraud. They mostly deny, say nothing, or mumble “I don’t know how that could have happened.”

It would be a service to the world for someone to come clean and explain their actions and motivations. It has happened in other fields — Bernie Madoff gave a good account.

wish they wuld hire a box-promoter to organize science funding. Less waterhead, more fights, more results and if he tries to orgsnize somebody to take a dive for the bets, you just know.
