Hi Gang,

This is a very enjoyable and informative paper I found today:
http://www.nesl.edu/lawrev/vol36/3/park.pdf

It is written by Dr. Robert L. Park and talks about the magnet craze today, homeopathy, the flying yogis and about the role of judges in courts when dealing with scientific matter.

For your enjoyment,

Yair
 
We need articles like these on occassion to balance out the never ending series of trolls who argue from their ignorance. Once in a while it's good to see the voice of reason is out there.
 
For those who haven't read it, Robert Park puts this argument together in his book Voodoo Science. For anyone that enjoyed the article, I recommend reading the book. All his writing is this clear and concise.
