RE: Dark cannibalistic elders - dark matter strikes back
Actually, in our field, almost everything is public and freely available on the arxiv even before articles are submitted to journal. We are actually an open access field (you can check the SCOAP3 agreement) and everybody is welcome to work on anything he wants. That is probably not true for all branches of science, but in particle physics where all the money is public, this holds.
I agree, this looks more like a discussion to have on a chat or with a beer than written on a forum ^^
That's good to hear, people are waking up and things are heading in right directions. Thanks for the link, I've got some perusing to do.
Maybe in the future. For now, we all need money. :P
You can work on anything you want. The question of being funded is another (tricky) business, indeed :)
