Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson
Apart from being Fingered by the Telegraph she got savaged by the audience, especially when she stated that she wouldn't be paying back the money. She semi corrected that when cornered by saying if the independant audit finds her claims wrong she would think again.

Thing I came away with was this feeling that they're not sorry, and incredibly even feel a little hard done by (Plus the whole bollocks about paying them more, but they'd never vote for it themselves).
