Thanks for the ping.

The Faux Professors are everywhere.

They could not exist in the real world, so they hide and protect each other behind tenure.

When this stuff gets exposed via the internet and other conservative sites, it is like a big ox getting a splinter with some bad bacteria on the little splinter.

Eventually enough of these infecting little splinters will be the end of the big ox.

It seems that Sames is the GOOD guy -- Sezen is the bad girl.

When the students of the Faux Professors get out into the real world, the students will be in for a big surprise.

First, some of the students will eventually realize that the world is not flat ( as the profs told them ).

Second, The socialistic world of the old media, NEA, UAW, AFL-CIO...is dying.

They will be in for another surprise when the social security and medicare FDR ponzi schemes hit the wall in twenty years ...there will be alot of screaming.

Just curious as to the ethnic background of Dr. Sames.

Me too, let me make a wild @ss guess(WAG). He's a Czeck or Slovak. This is where Google is really useful, i.e. unique, ethnic names.

Two decades ago, our oldest son coined the phrase, "Instant Unemployment Degrees!"

The reality of these worthless degrees had hit home and bottomed out re the job market.

Graduates from good schools with valid degrees found good jobs. Those with instant unemployment had to go back for Masters and Phds in these worthless degrees.

Many are now full time Professors peddling the sos that they were peddled. Journalism degrees is another worthless one like any of the so called enviral degrees.

Considering that the Creationzoid/IDiacs never produce any data at all, they can sleep well tonight that they will never have any retractions of their bilge.

There's all kinds of blogging rumors swirling and whirling out there, such as in tenderbutton.com.

Facts seem to be that Prof. Sames was soon to be tenured and now that's been put on hold. Also, that Bengu Sezen claims she wasn't told about any retractions in advance, and that those who failed to duplicate her experiments didn't do them right.

If you get to reading in those chemistry blogs, you sure run into some rivalries and jealousies.
