I quit; this has become Motte Bailey at such an extreme that all I can do is promise to never wear a white suit and go on Foxnews.
Everything I said was the right thing after I reframe what I said to what we should have done given the knowledge that I know now.
Confusing- yeah, me too.
Confusing- yeah, me too.
Just to be clear, I told JFK not to get into the car in Dallas, I also advocated not to go into Vietnam, and told Chamberlin to go after Hitler.

Flippant --> True. Was it 10,000 who were at risk of dying or 100,000's? I'm having difficulty remembering after your rewriting of your narrative.
Do 80 year olds have a 25% mortality rate from daily activity?

@RogueRad asked tough questions. Some that I wish he had asked:
1. Do you have any regrets about publishing?
2. Your Santa Clara study received much pushback? Do you regret releasing a preprint? Do you regret promoting it on an international level following pointed criticism?

End note: did one of the most published authors in recent memory complain about not being able to publish something?
Me: no response; counting unpublished papers on my hard drive.
