This scientific scandal of nearly a year ago, which surely ranks up there in the annals of crime and wrongdoing with Trump University and the Clinton Foundation, if not with Teapot Dome and Watergate, received far less attention than it deserved:
How horrible that the offending word was permitted to appear, that our defenses were inadequate to prevent its publication. I think I need to sit down with my smelling salts.
How comforting, though, that help eventually arrived! What a relief to know that it can be blamed not on evil intent but, instead, on linguistic failings!
Trained and compassionate counselors will be deployed to assist those who’ve been traumatized. Safe spaces will be made available where suffering scientists and others can recover.
