They think the ideas are important enough to share, but they also realize
they can't explain the complex issues at the level required to understand
the ideas fully. These simplified interpretations of "technical junk"
are secondary sources and must be treated as such. Since they are dumbed
down, attempting to debunk the science at that level can be an incredibly
stupid thing to do. You could elaborate on the orginal ideas to then
debunk them, but you need to go to the primary sources.

This is *precisely* the attitude I was trying to describe earlier. Thank you, Thomas.
