Are you referring to the title or the experiment?  I thought the conduct of
this experiment had pretty much passed muster previously re the experiment,
AND the informed consent, with some caveats about the formality of such
records. 

Is there something in the DOE report to challenge this assumption?  Or just
the implications of the topic to the mindless media play this kind of stuff
gets?
