I honestly didn't think you could have taken it any other way... certainly not as an attack on you...

Am I being that hostile to you? ...or is what I'm asking just making you feel attacked?

That was pretty snide... not that I'm erasing it, just acknowledging it. Sorry.

To put a much finer point on it, your above post basically says that you looked into the subject and, at a certain point, decided to start trusting the scientists, right? Is that fair? I seriously am not trying to color your words or disparage you in any way...

My follow up question would be at what point was that. What did you have to hear that made you think: Yep, I'm buying this now.

I ask because I've not heard it, whatever it is, yet.

How can someone who obviously thinks so much of their ideas have so little respect for expressing them? How can someone who so yearns to be taken seriously make so little effort?!
