Whoa.

This article (thinks, Incoherent Ponderer, for pointing this out and your insightful post) is really distressing. Prof. Plummer is a class act and chaired a session of the APS Focus Topic that Eric Isaacs and I put together for this past March Meeting. I hope Tennessee is able to find the resources to support him fully.

Odd how ORNL got rid of a respected scientist but they didn't fire Rusi Taleyarkhan (http://philosophyofscienceportal.blogspot.com/2008/07/rusi-taleyarkhan-falsified-research.html)
and are happy to keep this distinguished fellow instead
