I've spent quite a bit of time looking at George H's post from
all angles trying to arrive at a reasonable response, and I've concluded
that only a limited response is best. I will just wonder why, as a
highly trained scientist, George could publish something that
would not make clear whom he was quoting in the original? Or not
tell the us that what Lu Abel was saying was his quoting of
George.
The bottom line is, I've read and re-read his explanation, and still
can't figure out who is saying what, in what context, and when. In the second
section of Post 11066 George clearly named Frank Reed as the person
whom he was quoting as he debated what Frank was
saying. Why George didn't do the same in the first section of
that post, is mind numbing? If you are finding it difficult to understand this,
I will not be surprised. ;-( Please ignore it.
