It may be fun to slam a group of scientists that got a bit of fame, but it is WRONG! These researchers did an honest job... They invited others to evaluate their results and shared info and samples. If you want to rant and rave blame the science ignorant media that blared "LIFE FOUND ON MARS!!!" When the researches said they had just found evidence that was consistant with a biological origin... The researchers did not claim they had proof...

If they had covered up their evidence until they had "proved" it one way or another then other nuts would be screaming about how these guys are part of a coverup...

They did the best science they could and invited others to take it further and maybe disprove them... That is science.
