That said, I am trying to do my own homework as much as possible, 'getting me to the library' as time and life allows. 
BAUT is certainly education al but should not be expected to provide one's entire education on space science/physics/astronomy/whatever. |
That's why we want to make sure that if you ask a question or read a thread in a general forum, you're getting the peer-reviewed, tested and accepted as correct information
This is the crux of the whole argument in a nutshell.
