Keith,
You should write a column about Thacker's and Lipton's false columns. Enough time has passed. Let's turn this around.
They lied. I really suffered from this. I want to go on offense, I can't do it personally. I'm hoping that an actual journalist writes up the
article on bullying scientists. The time is just right.
You can make a damn big splash with this. Lipton and Thacker lied through their teeth, as did Vuchnich.
I'm going to write this damn thing myself at some point. If I was a climate or vaccine scientist people would be screaming about how I
was treated.
I'm glad to help.
Kevin
