@orogenicman,
If you ever quote me you must also provide the link as well.
(hint: provide the green {click-able} arrow that I have demonstrated in the above post)
Otherwise, people here will not take you seriously, AND, if you misquote members, without links, you'll be nothing more than a nuisance at best, and a menace at worst.
(bold used not to punctuate points, but to simplify message)
EDIT: I'm not being a dick, I'm just keeping things on the up and up by suggesting realistic, and respectable boundaries.
Since I didn't quote you, and since I made no mistake in who I quoted, your point, whatever it was, is moot. I don't believe anyone here who has kept up with the thread could mistake who I was quoting. It is not my job to keep others in the loop. And for the record, I've posted quotes from others exactly as I did above since I became a member, and you are the first person who has ever complained.

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!
