To me, the fact that time was spent on producing that slick PR video,=20
instead of a clear and understandable diagram of the experiment so that=20
other experimenters can reproduce the effect, is a clue to the=20
intentions.  In the other videos, the cameraman seems to try very hard=20
not to hold the camera still long enough for you to see/understand=20
exactly what is on the table.

I've seen enough scams plastered over with "quantum effects" and "things=20
science doesn't know" to hold the appreciation until I see repeatable=20
results.  Most of them come with Youtube videos very similar to the one=20
