We, including myself , are just too darn gullible , we have allowed ourselves to be influenced by people who are likely not as smart as we are. We are influenced by the media to the degree we can likely not think on our own, we have become "Mary Hartman", the icon of consumer stupidity. We fear , if we happen to have an original thought, that it won't be welcomed ,that we will be ridiculed, we will lose our position in some level of society, whether it be on a forum, in a sorority/fraternity , at our job, in our neighborhood..the possibilities are endless, we have such a strong need to belong and be accepted.
It has been known for some time that there is no one in Boulder or on these forums that has a real clue to offer up that would solve this case, yet when anyone creative "comes aboard" such as BAD, we throw her out. IMO the worst she did was give CW some free publicity, and that certainly isn't nearly as outrageous as slandering a nine year old child.
I bet if we could understand Lee's english we would find him dull, a few lucky "hits" along with great PR and advertising is all it took to give him expert status. We need to stop this, we are becoming darn sheep. Cm'on I could have found edta in the blood as could anyone of us, what he didn't do, is go a step farther, did he research whether the edta was in the tubes or testing equipment from prior use or cleaning. These guys aren't gods. RIght now in this case concerning the call, have they tested the 911 tapes, to see if they were reused? These guys stop when they "THINK" they have the answer. The whole damn case is one AH HAH after another with little or no substantial follow up, nothing but a series of conclusions based on guesses coming in from every direction. I wouldn't suggest PMPT is the bible of the case, because much of the information gathered by Schiller is based on falsehoods and inaccuracies, I would like to say there is some real trash between the covers of many of the others, but that wouldn't be fair, it won't hurt to read them all. Some may make you laugh at the absurdities but no harm done. It's difficult to separate the flotsam from the jetsam, I can't do it, and I doubt any of us can, just keep in mind "you" are smarter than they are and don't buy into any one theory. IMO....really
