Are you saying that it is acceptable practice to comment on scientific reports based upon a few words that caught your attention?
It could be. You're so imprecise that it's impossible to give any good answer even were your question to be cleaned up...if it were not a loaded one. e.g. in need of cleanup: your use of "acceptable practice". Where? By whom? For what purpose?

Why is it that you are not using my words directly ? No need to paraphrase for me !

Those words caught your attention because of your prejudice.

Yes, that's a good move. You were up to no good, anyway.

It's the stuff you write. It's about a little self-awareness.

Why do you never explain?
It's the stuff you write. It's about whaaaaat??

Forget the attempts at manipulation and evasion and disingenuity. Just say what you want us to hear. Plain. Direct. Concise. Be brave.

Then we can discuss.

Well, you could have meant either "dismissive", or "demissive".
No need to become nasty. It's the stuffs you write.
It's not like I'm writing those mangled stuffs that you pop up with.

Still haven't read the report that is the subject of the thread, have you?

Why do you post?

Because I noticed something in the executive summary as I read. I thought we had gone over that already.

And you? You've gone over it exhaustively, of course ?
