The evos like to think that they are the only ones at FR who read books or have degrees. It's really kind of pathetic.
IMHO, yendu bwam, your posts have been wonderfully and skillfully argued. Although Mr. Tortoise doesn't seem to realize it, you anticipated all of his objections before he even posted to you.
I can substantiate almost everything I post on FR. However, I don't have time to respond to or elucidate everything other people write, particularly if it is a point of fact that is self-evident with a little research (like in mathematics). As I have repeatedly pointed out to twits with reading comprehension difficulties, I do not have an opinion in the cr/evo debates (we can't prove either in a meaningful way). I hang around these threads to slice and dice the gross abuse and misuse of mathematic and scientific fields with which I am intimately familiar. Consider it a public service.

Yendu bwam IS a decent opponent, but that has little to do with the validity of the objections. My objections were clearly NOT anticipated, or I would not have had to elucidate on things I consider obvious to someone familiar with the topic.
