I don't understand Hugh's remark. Demolishing a well-accepted
theory or belief can be worth a Nobel prize. Some examples: Lederman, et
al.'s demonstration of neutrino flavors, Michelson's demolition of "ether
drift", Lee and Yang for proposing the Wu experiment on parity
nonconservation.
What is important is that the experiment showing "bad things"
can be reproduced.
One counter-example is worth 1000 (before inflation) examples.
