Subsequently, I filed a scientific integrity allegation, and was invited to speak publicly about it in May. I was confronted with a very wide range of questions, where I carefully offered my opinion or relevant information. Dennis Lynch of the U.S. Geological Survey recently questioned some of this information ("<a href="http://www.redding.com/news/2012/jun/11/dennis-lynch-klamath-science-process-is-solid/" style="color:blue;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none">Klamath science process is solid</span></a>," June 11). Below I summarize the rationale for my comments, and offer some additional perspective.
