Science! Science? Science...
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.
