[edit] Where is Jan Hendrik Schön today?

after reading that his Ph.D. was yanked in 2004, is there any web article that mentions what happened to him. where did he end up? what does he now do for a living? r b-j 07:13, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

According to Science (April 7th 2006 issue) his whereabouts are unknown. Lylum 23:02, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Plagiarized sentences

Several sentences (almost entire paragraphs) in this article are taken directly from Dan Agin's book Junk Science. rvilbig December 27, 2006 at 05:57:33 (UTC)

Are you sure it's not the other way around? According to Amazon, that book was published on October 3, 2006 [1]. Comparing the present version of the article to the September 20th 2006 (the last one before the book came out), there have been only a few minor changes (punctuation etc.), no new sentences or paragraphs. In fact the last big addition was in June 2006 (a list of withdrawn journal papers), and before that, a couple sentences were added on April 20, 2006. I don't count some nonsense vandalism from 11 November removed a few minutes later. Can you find the specific edits to the article that contain sentences similar to the book? Thanks. 67.117.130.181 16:14, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
