All experiments are nonreproducible because the initial conditions of two experiments will never be identical. That is why drawing a conclusion from an experiment is inductive rather than deductive. You can never know if the result happened because of the conditions you were testing or because of your initial conditions.

>nonreproducible experiments
I can think of a few reasons for this. Feel free to add to the list.
Political agenda (shape policy)
Commercial agenda (sell product)
Academic agenda (bullshitted thesis/maintain tenure)
Social agenda (shape opinion)
Sloppiness

I realize that these reasons can lean upon each other.

What about experiments that are dependent on a one-time event?
