3. A majority of published research studies are probably false for various reasons, many of them honest.
4. etc.
NONE of this negates the facts that:
1. Dingo doesn't understand any of this and it shows in each post
2. Dingo cherry picks articles that he likes and he only likes things that he thinks he understands. This is exactly NOT how science is done yet he claims to be scientific.
3. If Dingo can come up to speed in a very complex area of medicine with no relevant training by doing a few google searches then why do other people need colleges, graduate schools, and years of work in laboratories training in a field?
4. It is rich that he alludes to misconduct on the part of the entire SRS when in fact the only misconduct I have seen in this field is by one of Dingo's favor medical authors. WRT this medical author, this behavior includes not being open/honest with medical colleagues and double publishing data without admitting it. So, so ironic that Dingo mentioned this. How myopic.
Why do I care? I care because I know first-hand what it takes to get to the cutting edge of a scientific field. I know what these researchers did to get where they are. That is why it is so annoying when a know-it-all ignorant lay person breezes in and thinks they can do a few google searches and be in a position to criticize scientists. That takes arrogance to symphonic levels. With all his posts, Dingo just proves he remains clueless about science and how it works and how it is done.
