Don't bother with this one, Brian. It's already been falsified. Michael just clings to it because he doesn't understand the standard cosmological model and so thinks it must be wrong.

Actually, some might argue that the effort expended in trying to produce "statistically significant" results (and hiding those that aren't) has been a inhibitor to the growth of our knowledge.

As already noted, the topic of this thread is supposed to be the position of the APS and specifically the survey of same. Continuing to derail with posts about general global warming discussions will likely result in further moderator action, up to and including suspension and banning.
