Barb I agree with you completely and that is why I have persisted as I have.  
We also need to look at information and evaluate it.  There is so much 
misinformation out there and when it is said long enough and often enough it 
sometimes becomes a pseudo truth.  Only problem is the genes just don't 
understand how they are expected to act.  

Hopefully we can get to the point that when you question something or want to 
look at it independently, you will not get classified as a troublemaker or 
people think you are doing something personal to them such as doubting their 
integrity.  These are all false problems that only hinder progress.  All of 
us have opinions and we tend to be resistant to modifying them.  That's why 
communications and talking about same in a responsible non inflammatory way 
without bringing in emotion is important. This can be done without impugning 
the work being done by others and I believe we are all grateful for the 
honest work done that is positive in nature.
