Reply #40: To repeat myself for the third time: for the exceptionally thick

[Fly by night]

"It is appropriate to prepare for future pandemics. It is also morally imperative that we be truth-tellers. (That's how I used to define 'epidemiologist' when someone asked what it meant.)"

I see you have neither posted your credentials (just like you have not posted your profile) and you have not pm'ed me with your outside email address so I can send you my resume (which I remain very willing to do.)

If you cannot understand the above-posted statement (which I've posted three times now), you cannot share with the rest of us the basis for your expertise (or should I say attitude) and you cannot pm me your email address so that at least one of us (me) can share our credentials; then you're not worth wasting any more of this beautiful Sunday with.

I suggest you re-read everyone else's posts here, as well as several other threads that have been posted to counter your "booga booga" world-view. Then you might also try to get outside and get some fresh air.

Don't worry -- the sky won't fall on you. (Of course, we can't be sure of that. Can't be too careful these days, now can we.)

As far as you being here at DU longer than me, why would you expect me to take your word for that? You know exactly how long I've been here -- only one of us (you) remains a self-imposed mystery poster with unknown credentials and unclear credibility.

What's up with that?
