SherryThompson If you like satires about scientific method, hunt up this book. If you're up to a little more work, there are hundreds of articles/issues of the "Worm Runners' Digest" pubbed by the U of Michigan from back in the 60's I believe. I used to read them when I had a chance in the library where I worked.
This information may help you track them down:
