[Untitled][edit]

I had forgotten about this case until I saw a NY Times article chronicling the accusations and his eventual sentencing. I am glad he was sent to jail. I am a biomedical researcher and I have to send in grants and compete for funding with jokers such as him. In this line of business, the rich can get richer and if they do so fraudently then it hurts the majority of honest scientists and society as a whole. It is very tough to get funded and yes the ability or inability to get research grants has a direct effect on a career. If there are people out there wasting public money on made up data, then root them out and punish them! It really is a zero sum game. Let the people who are honest and want to do the science in to do research. We all want a level playing field and really I regret that he doesn't serve more time. If only to send a message to the few others who might be doing the same. [Gee I feel better already :)]

My teacher[edit]

Everyone makes mistakes and Mr. E Poehlman was no exception. They made an example of him but how many other scientists/people are guilty of the same but have never been caught. This is not an excuse but the truth. Mr. Poehlman is a great teacher and my daughter has benefited from having him as a teacher. She is lucky to have had the opportunity to benefit of all his experience and knowledge in science. He is commited to education and we are lucky to have him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.154.93.238 (talk) 11:29, 9 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

K guys, this is a Wiki article, not ratemyteacher.com, relax. It is also quite obvious that you didn't understand the seriousness of what Poehlman did, so why don't you guys go learn some multiplication tables. 76.66.186.59 (talk) 04:22, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
