"It's a brief blog post, for heaven's sake, not a treatise."

And the primary reason I rejected it....and professional nutritionists do not have the qualifications to have an expert take on those studies..you can put yourself in that category also, sorry.

"Bonnie and Clyde" didn't use articles from the the LATimes, they only used excerpts no doubt selected to suit their objectives...that is no way to publish scientific information.

"I conclude that nothing short of seeing your own pre-conceived notions presented back at you would be regarded as having any merit."

A notion is an idea, so it is impossible for me to have preconceived ideas about studies that haven't taken place or haven't been published, but you are correct I only look to scientific literature for facts based on experiment. I don't mind having informal conversations about such topics but will always be prepared to back up what I have read with the source if necessary. And I really have a distaste for politics being brought into such discussions...
