The beauty of the approach that I am advocating is that with this approach, the work of Dr. Wood can be peer reviewed. If it is faulty, this will come out in the peer reviews of her work. Unlike the official approach, which is to try to keep most of the methods used to arrive at their conclusions to themselves, to not submit their work to any scrutiny or review, and to marginalize and/or demonize anyone who questions their methods or conclusions.

The approach being used by the government is not how we do science. And as long as they cling to this approach, they invite accusations that they are participating in a cover-up. Which leads us to the next obvious conclusion, which is that they have something to cover up.
