    I remember reading this simply terrible article in Scientific American; the entire article was based on this research paper referred to the meme above.

    The paper was a complete fraud, and people just guzzled the cool-aid. He’ll they still do, looking at this thread.

      I refuted this article when it was published based on their incredibly biased and cherry picked data sources which were entirely baseless.

      I wish more people were willing to apply critical thinking and analysis to such claims. All falsified claims are a setback and detriment to humankind’s comprehension of the universe.
