      Thank you! THAT’S why I reached out, because I thought maybe you were in the field and had some good sources. You ended up not being in the field, but I didn’t know until I reached out. Thank you!

        I googled that. I’m not certain if I had seen it discussed in a documentary or a lecture or something similar.

        I consume a lot of information.

        I am not an expert, I just like to read. If I read something it’s etched in my brain for eternity.

            Buddy, my field is computer science. I learned literally nothing new other than we found definitive bones to prove the pre-existing theories that we’ve had since 1990

              Well I didn’t write the article, so I guess all the people who are publishing it, disagree with you as well. You know, you seem soooo friendly, I would never have guessed computer science. Imagine that!

                I’m imagining this as me walking through a mall and you handing out free pieces of chicken and I in my misfortune decided to take you up on your offer and took that free piece of chicken. I have now been waylaid for 15 minutes by your shenanigans because you refuse to accept that I did not like the chicken that was a given freely to me. Am I not entitled to my own opinions?. I’m being rude because you won’t take a simple no for an answer. You have reached out to me over five different DMS about this subject when I made it clear to you initially that I did not care to further continue this conversation.

                Then apparently I’m assuming because I’m too lazy to actually check the mod log. You removed my comment where I screenshotted your first DM to me because I guess you realized how stupid it looked

                  Oh, I was happy to restore your image of my dm so anyone can see what made you so annoyed. It’s back up. :)

                  OR it can be like me handing out chicken in the mall, you not liking it, and me asking, hey why didn’t you like it? Is there something I missed or something wrong with it? Which is not that unusual. You’ve never ever been asked why you didn’t like something?!

                  And no, I deleted the dm shot because all you did was show an image of me asking you why you downvoted the article. We’ve already established that I wondered why you didn’t like the article.

                  I thought maybe there was something scientific in it that was wrong and was interested in your thoughts. But your only thoughts were that it’s a fluff piece.

                  So you answered, gave your opinion, and now we’re done.
