Dave, I am starting to think that in your rigid and inflexible ways you are basically anti-science and anti-progress! Just because the Smithsonian has an open mind to explore alternatives does
not make them pseudoscientists!
This religious approach that you have towards science is intolerable and unaccepting to say the least!!!
