#1 Curious how it's always the lab assistant fault.

#2 ...As a wise man once said, "Follow the money."

$233,700,000 of our tax dollars would NEVER have been spent unless the labs and the assistants and the Eminent Scientists(TM) kept coming up with the big, splashy, terrifying, we're-all-gonna-die results. And by the same token, the EPA cannot keep its status, influence and most importantly, power, unless it keeps handing out money looking for problems to solve...which, coincidentally, never seem to get solved.

And g(r)omguru speaks wisdom as always - it's always the lab assistant. Which, of course, is bullshiat. The scientists in charge know full well what is going on - you cannot get results that consistent and so precisely 'in the zone' that quickly without some kind of fudging. In a perfect world, someone in DC would immediately ban Duke and Other Universities from any Federal research grants for a few years or so. That would get attention.

#3 Well, the EPA and Obumble wanted a certain result so they government could leverage more power away from the people and the lab delivered what the government paid for.
