Eli meant to behave but there were way too many options.

Eli Rabett
Eli Rabett, a not quite failed professorial techno-bunny who finally handed in the keys and retired from his wanna be research university. The students continue to be naive but great people and the administrators continue to vary day-to-day between homicidal and delusional without Eli's help. Eli notices from recent political developments that this behavior is not limited to administrators. His colleagues retain their curious inability to see the holes that they dig for themselves. Prof. Rabett is thankful that they, or at least some of them occasionally heeded his pointing out the implications of the various enthusiasms that rattle around the department and school. Ms. Rabett is thankful that Prof. Rabett occasionally heeds her pointing out that he is nuts.

Good job by Whitehouse.
This is important stuff, no kidding.
Seems like as good a thread as any to close the book on the Charles Monnett story much discussed here a few years ago. This was the researcher who was interrogated by agents from Department of the Interior Inspector General's Office about his monograph on polar bears.

I have a feeling that Charles Monnett will have his choice of positions in reputable scientific institutions. The DoI just wants their bungled muzzling of him to vanish, but they're sadly deluded if they think that they've hidden their abhorrent behaviour.
What is it with the conservative governments of Australia and Canada? Between the two of them the progress of Western science has taken a palpable hit to the goolies... the triumphal march of ideology over intelligence continues apace.
I hope you're right about Monnett, Bernard. His case was nowhere near as high profile as Mann's, who enjoyed a great deal of support and a public victory. I doubt many will remember Monnett's story. As far as I'm aware, no one apart from PEER has reported the shameful developments to the conclusion.
