Dear Mr. Dohan. I agree completely that the purpose of these debates is to learn, and not to be right. If I sometimes appear to express myself forcefully, that is not meant to suggest that I'm sure I'm right, and always welcome any constructive criticism, and further information.

With that in mind, I've just published my full response to what you say here. I've done it as a separate article, in order hopefully to bring it to the attention of a wider audience, which might stimulate further debate and information. I'd be interested in any response you have.
