老刺头最近又发飙，说新科NB奖获得者占用了年轻人的credit。但这次别人不领情，曾经的年轻人们出来集体澄清（Lawrence's book review unfair to Hoffmann）。老刺头总是喜欢用自己的标准来衡量别人，那可不好使。看看他带的博士后的文章是如何署名的，就知道他为什么那么拽了。

以现在人的眼光，很难看出Gary Struhl是Peter Lawrence的博士后吧。时代变了，老刺头的观念还不变，这不应该。

一不留神，还看到了老刺头几年前的一篇评论。有意思的是，他开头就引用了一兄弟在1948年说的话。这兄弟更厉害，把今天发生在学术界的一切都非常准确地预见到了。

“You could set up a foundation with an annual endowment of thirty million dollars. Research workers in need of funds could apply for grants, if they could make a convincing case. Have ten committees, each composed of twelve scientists, appointed to pass on these applications. Take the most active scientists out of the laboratory and make them members of these committees. …First of all, the best scientists would be removed from their laboratories and kept busy on committees passing on applications for funds. Secondly the scientific workers in need of funds would concentrate on problems which were considered promising and were pretty certain to lead to publishable results. …By going after the obvious, pretty soon science would dry out. Science would become something like a parlor game. …There would be fashions. Those who followed the fashions would get grants. Those who wouldn't would not.”
