What are some examples of good scientific evidence that isn't good bayesian evidence?

Uh, how about all of parapsychology, aka "the control group for the scientific method". ;-) Psi experiments can reach p .05 under conventional methods without being good Bayesian evidence, as we've seen recently with that "future priming" psi experiment.

(Note that I said "scientific" not Scientific. ;-) )

Ok, I wouldn't have necessarily classed that as 'good scientific evidence' but it seems to be useful Bayesian evidence so we must be looking at it from different angles.
