Hunh. I'm genuinely not sure what to make of this recent article or the linked essay from 2005. Combined with the chocolate hoax I read about a while back (totally different issue, but also skepticism inducing and loosely based on the same p value problem), I feel a lot less good about the usefulness of peer reviewed and published papers (especially in the "soft" sciences) than I did this time last year.

He either fears his fate too much
or his desserts are small
That dares not put it to the touch
to gain or lose it all
