I have a PhD in engineering and when I see model after model failing to predict data sets and "error terms" larger than "effects size" I hold my judgment.

And then I use my first hand knowledge of the "grant writing" process and the peer review process in journals and I conclude there's too much Obama government funding that found its way into universities to draw a conclusion just yet.

You don't have PhD and you never worked in a research lab or university to understand the problem.
