The way you have it written makes it insanely powerful.  It is rather 
powerful as it is.

Also "Boosts science by 100%" does not mean doubles science.  It is 
understood that percentage increases are additive not multiplicative. 
You're talking about "doubles all science".

Finally you don't handle Newton or SETI.  I think it's impossible to 
handle them because that would require two reqs.  Interestingly this 
shows a situation where the reqs would have different ranges.  E.g.

   "name", "range", "value", "req1_type", "req1_range", "req1" \
                             "req2_type", "req2_range", "req2"
   "Science_Bonus", "Player", 100, "Building", "City", "University" \
                                   "Building", "Player", "Newton"

eventually the above should become our effects format and multiple reqs 
should be allowed.  Until then doing this is impossible.
