A new study done by scientists has shown that scientists are somewhat more lax than once thought. In a move worthy of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the science community has created a full circular structure. The author commented, "It is interesting to see this sequence happening yet again. But it was indeed destined to happen again. Well, maybe not exactly again so much as happen in the same way as is happened before.". Analysts are still trying to determine the meaning behind Marquez's cryptic comment.
Brian C. Martinson of HealthPartners Research Foundation believes that changes need to be made. He said, "Science needs to move on to new an more accurate methods. We can't just throw a bunch of monkies in a room and hope to get results anymore. From now on, are testing will be done entirely on human subjects.". A poll conducted by the group found that many scientists agree with Martinson's statement.
Who knows, maybe science is worth sacrificing.

Science IS a human endeavor, so some flaws shouldn't be too surprising. And it sounds from the MSNBC article like there amy be some flaws in the survey. But then there are the flaws of Political (Politicized) Science: it turns out an Administration official has been editing scientific reports to downplay the connection between greenhouse gases and climate change.
