You have to read this article, really you just have to read the first few paragraphs. If you were ever a fan of popular mechanics or popular science you will understand instantly what they are talking about. It is actually the reason i stopped reading it, but also the reason i occasionally sneak a peak at one of them in the airport or something. On a similar note it is why it is harder and harder to read Scientific American these days, because there is less and less of the real science stuff in there, but luckily it hasn't completely died.
