I disgree Phil, if there's a delusion it would be that whether or not
they're "the most knowledgeable meteorite people in the solar system,"
certain persons have all shown that, ostensibly due to laziness, or
for lack of eloquence, they don't care to explain why it is they've
"(told) him it's not." Furthermore, the delusion would be that when it
comes to being rude, provocative, and aggressive, I have little on
certain persons who may, or may not be, considered "experts" in this
field, but who do certainly seem to hold themselves in high esteem.
Obviously, I am the newcomer here, so unlike others, I don't feel I
have the right to simply critique someone without elaborating on my
reasons, but I would suggest you take into account that it's not very
ethical to do that, even if it's tolerated by well-respected persons
and peers.
