Your analysis is interestig however since it is of ancedotal evidence which your reject as being possible to evaluate scientificly then your evaluation has no more validity than mine.
My goodness.. this is even more silly than you saying "straw man!" on the most inopportune occasions. This "I'll use against you, what works against me"-stuff is becoming more hilarious each time I see it. And sad at the same time, since if you think the term "ancedotal evidence" applies here, do you even understand what it means when other use it appropriately? A question I fear will remain unanswered.
