X-Message-Number: 26211 Date: Sat, 21 May 2005 07:12:58 -0400 From: Thomas Donaldson <> Subject: Not a very good try. You can try again. To Basie yet again: In both cases, whether antioxidants might slow our aging, and the role that inbreeding is supposed to play in causing aging, you have done no more than repeat what you've said before. Repetition does not provide a very convincing method of argument. Nor, for that matter, does mere denigration of the main theorists of biology do anything to convince any rational person that they might be wrong (theories disappear when better theories come along, not when lots of people simply refuse to believe them and, less politely, denigrate those who thought them up). If you wish you can try again. But remember what I just said here. Best wishes and long long life to all, Thomas Donaldson Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=26211
