What objective evidence do you gather? I imagine it must be basic science, because it's no longer objective once people's observations and opinions start getting involved, right?

Sorry you wouldn't want me on your team. I got really, really high marks in all my lab work. Excellent science methodology.

As to a bootleg copy of Moore's film, I'm told he encourages it -- that he denounced and renounced the copyright laws of the United States, and that there are downloads available on the web. Of course, the reality of downloading a movie might conflict with the spirit of the term, "available."

I do, however, soundly reject your charge of intellectual dishonesty for expressing opinions without seeing the material. I don't need to see the magician's lovely female assistant locked into a box and sawed in half to know that it's stage effects and sleight of hand that account for the perceptions.

Of greater questionable honesty is your own suspension of disbelief in order to avoid dispelling your preconceptions.

Or, maybe it's just your lack of experience or immaturity.
