Libelous? Dean, let’s disagree on substance. I have doubts about the efficacy of work in this field and think it needs to be reconconceived about the public rather than media. That is why I dislike even the title; it speaks to the condescension to which I object. That is what I explain in my post. You respond to none of that except in defense. I’d prefer a discussion about the goals, mechanisms, and impact of this work.
