Add CommentYou told me I could read the 'full article' here. You lied. This is a black mark on Sci Am! I'd be firing some staff members, that's for sure. You've wasted my time. Bad idea. Sci Am was once a preeminent journal on scientific discoveries. Now it's much less than what it was. Shame on Editors and reporters both!
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisUm, in a slightly less hysterical tone, I will agree with Quasimodo above that it is frustrating to read the tantalizing links, only to find the transcript unavailable. I get to SciAm via the Google widget, so by the time the transcript is posted a week later, the widget has forgotten (and by extension, so have I).
