Hi everyone, I am not looking at just this one quote, but can we please contain our remarks to the facts.
I do not trust Stoye or Switzer. That is my opinion. I could be wrong about their trustworthiness.
Stoye has been caught publicly making an incorrect claim at a conference, regarding XMRV. He probably justifies it some way, but that is just spin. Point out the factual error, and let everyone draw their own conclusion. What I find hard to accept is that nobody challenged him. If a researcher affiliated with the WPI were there, he would have been challenged I am sure. With all those researchers there who supposedly know a lot about XMRV, who did not challenge him, what does that say about the state of research? They are trying to prove a point, and not thinking sufficiently critically.
Bye
Alex
