As I may have stated in my message, although I am an RSO, by training
I'm really a humble microbiologist, which means I don't really have
the facts and know-how to effectively rebut.  Besides, and not to
sound too provincial, most of the letters to our newspaper deal more
with traffic, abortion, and the horrible decline of morals in
America.
    Cody Shearer is a national columnist as far as I know, and your
newspaper in your town may carry his column.  I'm just the message
boy; you're the folks with the ammunition.
