What does superted, as a fully qualified scientist, think of what has been said so far on the Science section of this forum?

Oh, yes.

Let's see.

My rude comment to superted was that we didn't have to believe he was a scientist.

My goodness.

I think I just might have to ban myself.

It is utterly rude blueangel.

That was a dumb and pointless analogy.

Your analogy is ridiculous, Gale.

Meeting someone for a few minutes in a doctor's office; learning about their life and never encountering them again is much different than hanging around anonymous posters on an internet forum for months who claim to be scientists, but offer no information about their credentials.

Such as where they work; from what college they graduated; their life, their spouse, their children, etc.

Furthermore, to think that I feel anyone's life is better than mine because their profession is not the same, is even more ridiculous.

If by 'Gale' you are referring to myself, you are wrong. I never used such an analogy regarding a doctor's office. I believe it was superted.

As for hanging up 'anonymous posters' on the forum on scientific matters, again you are wrong. G Alexander is my actual name.

And further you are mistaken on the subject of credentials. Scientists who submit papers on the internet or in relevant scientific journals don't go into exhaustive detail on "where they work; from what college they graduated; their life, their spouse, their children, etc." I don't know where you got this strange idea from?

All this BlueAngel amounts to little more than pointless back chatter.

But then again this is your usual performance.

[superted]

Galexander - I'm not sure why 'gale' was mentioned but that was aimed at me, your reply is very telling about what most people think about blueangel. I enjoyed it :-)

Thanks Grim!

My post was meant for Ted.

Since it's useless back chatter, I suggest that those on this forum who find it necessary to chatter about me, direct their energy elsewhere.

I was making a point.

People who post on internet forums, do so, most times, anonymously.

Therefore, anyone can claim to be anything because there isn't any way to verify it.

You have no clue what most people think about me.

I think you're cool Blue.
