The problem with economics, psychology, et al., is that the experiment must be repeatable. One counterexample disproves a theory. While economics rightly borrows much from science, it is not a science.
Of course, now we have to throw out quantum mechanics, which is fundamentally not repeatable, but that is another story...

welcome our new bald mouse overlords.
Yeah. Open Source is great. Gotta love it. But this, methinks, is too much.
Open Source OS? You bet. But Open Source US?
It isn't science unless it follows the Scientific Method

I was not familiar with microgravimetry. The Federal Highway Administration has an article on using it to find old mines
It looks like basicaly you use Newton's law of gravatation to measure the local density of the earth, and just look around for a dip.
Microgravimetry is also used in the study of thin films
