Consequently, we have decided to retract the article. This paper is thus declared retracted and shall be marked accordingly for the scientific record.
MDPI would like to apologize to the readers of IJERPH that this article was published with the errors mentioned above.
Artikeln är med andra ord inte längre att anse som publicerad.
Mmm, precis. Jag har ju tidigare redovisat kritiken och Herndons bemötande av denna, vilken sades ligga till grund för tillbakadragandet. Lustigt att den aktuella artikeln först ansågs hålla måttet:
Paul B. Tchounwou, the journal's editor, issued a retraction on Sept. 2 that details Herndon's mistakes. The retraction also says, "The language of the paper is often not sufficiently scientifically objective for a research article."
Tchounwou did not explain why the journal failed to notice the paper's lack of objectivity when it was first submitted for publication.
Herndon, 71, said in an email Sunday, "The retraction of my peer-reviewed and published scientific paper was based upon a systematic, aggressive attack by one or more individuals making blatantly false and/or pejorative remarks. I explain the circumstances in detail in the attached document that can also be downloaded:

"You may or may not know of my communications with San Diego officials:

"The very aggressive campaign to have my two scientific papers on tropospheric coal fly ash retracted is good evidence that I am right on target. You may quote me as saying that I will continue to oppose the retraction until truth and reason prevail."
