Hey VictorGodart I found some things that didn't pass my sniff test. Could it be... fishy??? You might want to fix some stuff up or else it's headed belly up in our tank.
Want me to get particular? Okay--I don't understand why you posted this. Why is this important to you? What do you want to acheive in posting it?
Also, consider your headline. What is this really about? How could you shape the headline to draw people to your story?
Finally, is this just an add for Scientific American? If so, then consider it SPAM and erased accordingly. If you improve your story, I'll be happy to remove this flag.
