Excellent article, Andrew. Excellent. I wish you could get this out there and everywhere.

I could have picked any line in your essay for my response. Your points are golden.

I chose the above because, when I accidently came across your name and started reading, I was worried that you might be the (above) latter. Not because of anything I initially read, simply because of this huge political and human divide and the sheer number of nonscience (hmmm nonsense...) or science-at-my-convenience articles.

Also the lame way I found you. "Tanner," I said, "Okay, what does he have to say!"

Turns out : a lot and really good stuff.
