signs of Pseudoscience
1-Discoverers make their claims directly to the popular media, rather than to fellow scientists.
2-Discoverers claim that a conspiracy has tried to suppress the discovery.
3-The claimed effect appears so weak that observers can hardly distinguish it from noise. No amount of further work increases the signal.
4-Anecdotal evidence is used to back up the claim.
5-True believers cite ancient traditions in support of the new claim.
6-The discoverer or discoverers work in isolation from the mainstream scientific community.
7-The discovery, if true, would require a change in the understanding of the fundamental laws of nature.
