Not to make anything big of this, but if it wasn't such a
politically charged issue as a whole and if the players
stayed more in the area of discussion rather than turning
to politics for a solution..... it might actually be a
good thing to have people who wrestle with finding an alternative
explanation. Regretably, it mostly seems to come out as
"Einstein was wrong" claims, but (pushing the politics aside for
a brief moment), having a differing opinion is not always bad
and sometimes it is even good to be stubborn.
Frankly tough, I basically agree with you.
