  We try to solve the dark matter problem in the fit between theory and the
Hubble diagram of supernovae by allowing for torsion via Einstein-Cartan's
gravity and for anisotropy via the axial Bianchi I metric. Otherwise we are
conservative and admit only the cosmological constant and dust. The failure of
our model is quantified by the relative amount of dust in our best fit:
Omega_{m0}= 27 % +/- 5 % at 1 sigma level.
