It was quite simple, really. You stated quite confidently that the article "was mostly an attempt to demonstrate actual problems with the method that Carrier uses." I assumed that you had some evidence supporting that claim, perhaps some quote from either McGrew or Peoples from which it was drawn, so I requested that you provide it. I was not prepared to assume that you would have such confidence in a pronouncement you had pulled just from your arse. (Otherwise you would express your assertion more tentatively and provisionally, I would assume. Was I mistaken?)
