The whole issue of "reproducibility" is a very theoretical discussion. No
one wakes up in the morning thinking that they can enhance their careers or
attract new funding by verifying that someone else's "breakthrough" is in
fact, a breakthrough ('cept astronomy, where verifying someone else's
sighting is considered neighborly. ([log in to unmask])

How do you therefore account for the deluge of "me too" papers showing that neonics have negative effects on bees? How many times does this have to be proved?
