Thanks Dr.B. It does alleviate some of my doubts about Odd's identity. I really didn't think that Odd was B., but a doubt still lingered in the back of my mind.
Sorry for entertaining thoughts against your separate existence Odd. I guess B. had upset me enough to be paranoid of anyone who would side with someone who was so full of hate and was in such denial of his illness (especially when adamantly rejecting any support us Babblers tried to give him). I agree that some of B.'s theories were intriguing and playing a devil's advocate is sometimes needed, but B. always stopped short of scientifically backing his positions with sound reason. Instead, he chose to lash out against mainstream scientific thought, just because it was mainstream scientific thought. Our accepted science is far from perfect, but if one is going to attack it, the attack should be logical and backed by reproduceable research, not just contradictory rhetoric.
Odd, I hope that you accept my sincere apologies. - Cam
