I apologize to Trotsky, BMUS and Coz
You were a good tag team and you really did try.

I got halfway down that thread and steam poured out of my ears and my blood pressure spiked and I'd had enough.

I used a sawed off shotgun instead of a scalpel.

Mea culpa.

2. LOL - no apology necessary.
Go eat some roach poison and you'll feel better.

4. The other thread is even worse
One poster seems to be sucking all the IQ out of the room.

But I am trying out a new policy:

I give up as soon as Hasselhoff appears.

6. phht! Please, Warpy, the intellectual capacity of that thread had already been breached.
trotsky did his best, but it was a lost cause way before I piled on.

Mentioning vaccination these days is like waving a red flag in front of a bull, and questioning woo woo inspired hysteria will get you nothing but accusations of shilling and a migraine.

I now remember why I abandoned that forum.

8. Heh heh, since Warpy's already weighed in, I'm hoping Heddi stumbles across it next.
Nurses totally kick ass when they're pissed!

12. Saw those couple threads. Failed to comment, though I thought about posting this:

Just to add some levity.

By the way, hi Skeptics group! :hi:

Been a while since I posted here.

As I said a couple of times over there, some of the posts there remind me of the stuff you get from anti-stem-cell research fundies.

BTW, as a small gesture, I posted a sticky on Grovelbot's board, giving thanks to medical researchers!
