Default How to spot bad science...

Seven warning signs of potential bogusness in certain scientific claims.

Pretty much the same thing as what Carl Sagan had to say on the subject back in '97 (and before). This guy's aparently wrote a book on just this subject too. Found the link on slashdot today. Figured y'all might like having it handy too.

Do you think he left anything out for the sake of getting lucky number seven? Which do you think is the biggest red flag? Any other thoughts or comments?
