The wikipedia article seems to contradict the nasa article.

The Wikipedia article is
Allais Effect, just so we have the link again.
Noever's planned look for the effect appears not to have happened. A dubious pro-Allais-effect site,
allais.info (WARNING: Guard your eyes; the author appears to hate good website design), has
this about Noever:

It looks to me that the number of failed attempts at replication are enough to explain why the effect doesn't seem to gain traction with the mainstream. That occasionally some experimenters get odd results, makes me think that people who are interested in the topic should continue to invest their time, resources, and efforts to figuring out what is going on.
I await the persuasive data. I don't believe I shall go seeking it though.
