Tom,

I have offered you resources so you can begin to learn about the things you have stated well-defined opinions about. It's up to you whether or not you decide to use them.

You're intelligent-sounding response has nothing to do with this conversation (ironically, your response qualifies as a "straw-man" argument) and it seems that you've copied and pasted some of your favorite "intelligent-sounding" phrases from some of these wonderful websites. Good job! (Next time use CTRL-C then CTRL-V. It's faster than using the mouse.) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Now, if you're interested in really learning about the subject of our conversations, please, read one of the suggested books.

These books document the information I have given you (so you can then verify the sources for yourself). Unfortunately, I will not spend time spoon-feeding you the documentation and proofs on this forum because I'm well acquainted with the spoon-fed mentality and I would be doing you no favors. If you want to back up your opinions, you have to do some work. My friend; There are no shortcuts to having a verifiable opinion.

"A word to the wise is sufficient."

You're a valuable part of this forum, particularly pertaining to the mercury issue, however, these other statements you have made attempting to discredit my research will eventually discredit you, particularly to those who are "in the know". I don't want to see that happen. I'd rather see you do some research and benefit from the information you acquire. It's worth the time. Please invest!

With many of the new searchable online references that are available, you'll be amazed at how easy it is to verify much of this information. It's actually fun too.

"Fingers are for lifting."
