Academics patronise air travellers

Shirley this is the correct use of science.
Hypothesis, theory, experiment, conclusion.
When you miss out scientific method you end up with the climate change problem.
Is this a good way to spend money, depends who is paying and why the research is done. If the airlines are paying to assess stress and find ways to lessen it then money well spent. If government grants are used to keep someone off the dole then waste of money.
Hypothesis, theory, experiment, conclusion.

If there's a problem, it's that we read a single page BBC news web article and thus form an opinion on what may be an interesting and relevant piece of research. Hypothesis, theory, experiment, conclusion.

Reminds me of the Republicans, here:

A computer model to analyze the onfield contributions of soccer players? A method of modelling sounds for computer games?
Never mind the development of transferrable modelling techniques and the amount of hard science and work that goes into developing methodologies- they're going to use if for what?
Typical anti-intellectual propaganda that is actually quite patronising in itself. The idea of letting the general public have a say in which technologies are worthwhile based on the title of their grant scares me even more than letting politicians become ministers in offices they have no background in.
