Brian seems to have a taste for Koolaid and decoder key access to sources of knowledge mere mortals are not allowed to access without Raider of the Lost Ark efforts.

Staying in the science forums is one method, my method of staying sane and most are reporting on peer reviewed material.

Judging by the straw man I doubt you could represent my views honestly. So that's a miss for the koolaid jibe.
