Keep going. I love it.

By the way, thanks for explaining away cancer, many forms of which cannot be
adequately explained yet.

Right, What's 'tobacco'? Certainly not what you're smoking. Well, I hope
you're right, but I'm not counting on it, so "back to Copenhagen for

Given that these are theoretical models that then have to be compared to
actual data for best fit leaves your favored conclusion a poor fit. But
since you already seem to have a conclusion in search of an explanation,
happy hunting.
