Extractions: What Is Skeptical Inquiry? Skeptical inquiry is a method of investigation which guides the evaluation of claims of fact. Four words neatly summarize the skeptical credo: Prove what you claim! Skepticism's core value is that only empirical and falsifiable evidence may justify belief in any phenomenon. A skeptic strives to identify and clearly articulate his assumptions and, when they are questioned, rigorously test them. Science is the best tool yet-invented for producing evidence that skeptics consider valid. Biomedical science provides rich fodder for skeptical inquiry, from outright nonsense to quackery (e.g., touch therapy ), to placebo therapies ( homeopathy acupuncture ), to borderline practices ( chiropractic ). While these examples are not generally considered medically harmful, they are excellent tools for fleecing people unfamiliar with the basic tenets of science and medicine. Hucksters make their money with wild claims of medical benefits for bogus (or at best, untested) therapies. Patients with debilitating or life-threatening conditions are among the most vulnerable members of our society, and we have a moral duty to expose those who would separate them from their money through dishonest practices.

( Via Ernest via Dan Gillmor , via Bruce Schneier Half the developed world's patent offices make this patent available over the Internet. Considering that the patent was granted in 1965, I think a few paper copies might also exist. Therefore, this is about as effective a security measure as requiring travelers to show a driver's license before they board an airplane that is to say, wholly ineffective. All this does is inconvenience the law-abiding American public when it tries to do research. Ernest makes the important point that the fundamental principal underlying our patent system is that inventors get exclusive rights to their inventions in exchange for full disclosure of the invention to the public. This is hardly the first case where the public has been shortchanged in the name of security. Ernest also has the best summary comment thus far (hyperlink original):
