forums@fqxi.org with a link to the original source and a sentence about why you think that the work is worthy of discussion. Please note that we receive many such suggestions and while we endeavour to respond to them, we may not be able to reply to all suggestions.

Hi Robert
Posting your essay here, for votes, must be akin to asking a 'Tyre/Tire' dealership, to adjust your vehicles 'tracking' accurately!?
I must admit to having had to look up more 'names and words'in 'Wiki' and dictionaries, whilst reading your essay than most others. However I have found the process most enlightening and rewarding.
Thank you.
Does being 'polemic' mean that you are 'forcibly sick' of 'science' leading us up the garden path and therefore need to strike an opposing stance? If so, I too find that, yet again, I am poised with fingers, in my 'minds throat'. I have no 'intention' of following any 'white rabbits' but it is difficult to avoid the holes they dig.There are so many.
Good Luck.
