== Sound science ==
Journal articles are not "based on sound science". Rather they ''are'' science. They are professional reports on the research conducted by scientists, including (but not limited to) experiments performed.
One would naturally expect that the most interesting journal article would be something which adds to scientific knowledge. Confirming what we already know, while it may be useful some of the time, is usually boring.
If anyone has information which contradicts the McIntyre quote, I hope they will provide it. But not as unsourced opinion, because that is not encyclopedic: that's bias. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 12:30, 3 July 2007 (EDT)
