Are you prepared to discuss the science or are you determined to silence any voices that are't singing from your song sheet?
Where's that 'I'm happy to defend my position' line that you're giving out on the R4 science board?
Even some of your supporters here are questioning your unwillingness to engage.
Is it because you are not certain that you can refute the points I've made?
