Thanks RA. I enjoy civil discourse. ;o)

Hard to find here these days. Sigh. Unfortunately I have found that my civility has waned over time here arguing with the same folks thread after thread.

Who refuse to even look at the evidence yet proclaim all of us scientists are either; a) morons, b) white collar welfare, c) going to hell, or d) completely wrong - even though they never take the time to understand what we are trying to teach.

I used to post lots of teaching posts here but most were ignored or never read.

Thank you for taking the time. It is refreshing and uplifting.

You can't argue logic and reason with someone that refuses to think.

The level of civility dropped a while back and, like you, I drifted away. It amazes me that just because we don't agree that it means we can't talk about it. Coyote was the only reason I posted on this thread because I knew him to be intelligent, reasonable and great to talk with.

I don't think I've ever come onto a CREVO thread hoping that someone would change their mind because of something I said. but I;ve sure searched further and further to understand why I believe what I believe based on what others have said. Hasn't changed my mind, but has been one heck of a fun journey to delve deeper into areas that interest me. Isn't that what JR created FR for?

FReepgards,
