Occasionally, fake science has been artificially produced. Examples include ‘Darwin's Black Box’ and some
farty noises. How have the fakes been detected? What motivated the fakers? Has anyone ever mistaken genuine science for a fart? Research and write a 200 word essay.

I was an undergrad in Leeds, where McIntosh is a professor.  Luckily I didn't do chemistry.

My impression is that thee guys haven't gained any traction - there isn't the support on the ground that there is in the US, so when they sent their crap round to schools, I suspect most teachers just laughed at them over coffee.
