Mea maxissima culpa. I am genuinely chastened. Thanks, I can use that
feedback.

The problem here is your equation of less-scientific with more
sensational with science fiction.
"Elvis Clone Reveals Jackie O's Secret UFO Diet!" is sensational,
and it is less-scientific. Tarring science fiction with that particular
brush should have gone out with the 1950s. A pity it hasn't.

Ah, but *is* that the charter of this forum? Have you read the document?

I freely grant that I should learn more diplomacy.
Thank you for the reminder.
Perhaps some of the other correspondents to this list should learn
more science. Perhaps not.
As I said before, it boils down to whether this is a clubhouse or an
outreach list. This may be a hard choice.
