To: RegulatorCountry; Dr. Eckleburg
Thank you, RegulatorCountry, for your fairness and decency.

My own view is that evidence and reasonable inferences from evidence, can only be effectively countered by other, better evidence and other, more reasonable inferences.

Repeated assertion does not count as proof. And "Naa naa, I can't hear you" with fingers in ears does not count as a factual refutation.

I do not demand that others accord my opinions the assent of faith. I make mistakes, I get thud-headed, and I myself am not an appropriate object for faith. I do demand attention to evidence. I also assume of others, and expect others to assume of me, a level of good will.

I thank you again, RegulatorCountry. I appreciate your attention to these things.
