I liked one of your last posts on the subject Fairweather. Keeping a critical eye towards scientific studies is a good thing.
Anyway I'm totally down with what Trask says. Arguing is fine, bullshit can be funny, but freaks like Mtn Goat and J B (to a lesser extent) make arguing fucking boring.
I mean the issue may be complex, but if you can't keep your replies short and to the point then nobody will read your posts, but everyone will think you're a tool.
Mtn Goat I challenge you to make some fun posts on some fun threads. Try this for 1 month and then try and make some better posts on political threads. I mean it's just the fucking internet.
