He isn't JUST a researcher... he HEADS the entire institute!
I might add that my views on psychology and economics as sciences are nearly as deflated as my views on nutrition as science (or rather, the dimwits doing it or pretending to) so this is kind of like THREE kinds of humor all in one here.
If you lie on an expense report in a company generally, you get fired. They assume if you did it now you probably did it before, will do it again, and are probably dishonest in other areas as well. This goes even for stellar employees. I have to say that I'm tempted to seriously question his data for all the past that made him so glorious now, too. I have run into people in other science fields who were just bozos that way and it nearly always turned out to be a character flaw that once you knew about it, you could track back a ways.
Can we blame character issues on bad diets and excuse him? Oh wait, I think I've heard of that subject before. :-)
