I seem to remember verlch or someone reveling in the fact the stem cell scientists in South Korea was faked, using it as some kind of strike against science in general.
It appears now that further testing has shown that they didnt fake everything and the dog was a genuine clone, we're still waiting for the data on the much ballyhooed Raelian cloned babies however.

"...things I have neither seen nor experienced nor heard tell of from anybody else; things, what is more, that do not in fact exist and could not ever exist at all. So my readers must not believe a word I say." -Lucian on his book True History
"...They accept such things on faith alone, without any evidence. So if a fraudulent and cunning person who knows how to take advantage of a situation comes among them, he can make himself rich in a short time." -Lucian critical of early Christians c.166 AD From his book, De Morte Peregrini |

Yeah, not all of his work was bogus...
Just the claims of somatic cell nuclear transfer.
Which was the most important claim he was making.
