> I don't think your speculation and armchair research is any more more helpful than the bad science journalism you complain about.

Anonymous people on the Internet can't be held to the same standards as a research paper. On the contrary, since this is largely a public opinion forum I believe that commenting without evidence is encouraged and it's up to the reader to make a determination about said opinion.

What a silly idea that we aren't allowed to publicize opinion.

There is Kind of a big difference between saying that a comment is not helpful and that you are not allowed to make a comment, you know.

Random unscientific speculation on scientific matters is a problem and should not be encouraged.
