All I said was is the claims made by Peaches that academia is rampant with made up stats and kook science is bullshit in that we have checks and balances.
Have you resorted to lying about what I said in order to prove your points? Here's a refresher course:

If you think for one minute that "facts" aren't created in academia, you're kidding yourself. My brother just left his post doctorate "position" (I put that in quotes because it only paid $35K a year and HE was responsible for the almost 100 hours he put into filling out the paperwork for his grant request which paid that $35K) at Duke in genetics because of what he saw once he reached the "lofty levels". And he was dealing with MEDICAL studies which were fudged. If you think the same can't be done by a teacher dealing with prison populations, you truly aren't as smart as you think you are. Again, I would never trust ONE PERSON as a source for any information.

Obviously not everything which is taught in schools (any school) is falsified, fudged, created etc. I never said that. But there ARE professors who will spew incorrect information, usually because they themselves think it's 100% correct. Even my own son challenged a professor in college and the professor was proven wrong - it happens.
Quick - play like Fletch when I point out his errors and say you don't really bother reading my posts. :P But if you're going to refer to them, at least get the facts straight, OK?
