John Clark

You have quoted me out of context in the above.  The full statement I 
made was:

"
As McKubre himself has pointed out, there is really no way to know 
whether a complex experimental result like this is correct or not except 
by situating oneself in the lab in question for several months and very 
carefully monitoring all procedures.
"

You omitted the end of the sentence that you quoted, in a way that 
appears specifically engineered to distort the meaning of my original 
sentence.

Please refrain from quoting segments of my posts in ways that make it 
look like I was making statements substantially different from the 
statements I was actually making!
