Part of my wishful thinking was that in the right circumstances, she would then be exposed as unwilling to engage in a debate on level playing field.
They only win because they chair their own "debates". A proper debate forestalls this.
Yep. Their bullsh*t-baffles-brains strategy would not work.
In a properly chaired scientific debate - which is why I specifically said that - EC would would not have been able to do to DT what she did. The...
Is their any kind of facility within the scientific community, where scientists can be formally invited to some form of chaired debate between...
Sorry, yes I agree with you. I'd dropped into a more general comment, and drifted somewhat from the specifics of this thread. I was really meaning...
