PASSPORT · WHAT THIS ROOM DID

Why does a lie travel further than the truth?

Every line is from the record. Nothing is computed for this page, and nothing is smoothed: a short list of disagreements means a room that agreed, not a room whose disagreements were tidied away.

What it rests on
  • Each revision is announced as if it were the position all along
  • Peer review is three unpaid people on a deadline
  • The reply is that release would be misinterpreted by the public
  • Once labelled, a claim cannot get a hearing even when the evidence changes
  • The few outside are dismissed as cranks by association
  • Institutions investigate themselves and find nothing
What it could not settle
Published as contested, never recorded as a no.
  • none: every pair the room reached was settled
What was predicted to follow
Written after the map settled. Nobody voted on it.
  • A public register of every official claim and every later revision — expected: a changed claim leaves a trace anyone can follow — due 22 Jun 2027
What the room would do
Each action judged against each root cause, at three quarters of the votes cast.
