>>> The article is nothing more than one man's experience with, and opinion of, a controversial subject. One might as well write an article or start a thread on religion or politics. <<<Quite a dismissive sentence BS64 after all the effort Bill Kenny put into the article.
Yes, the article is one person's writing - but a person struggling to write about and convey a difficult subject and his different experiences to others.
Greg Weaver's 'Soundstage' articles were, yes, one person struggling to write about a difficult subject and convey to others his different experiences. As were Dave and Carol Clark's articles, as was Jacques Thys's (Belgian) article as were all the different journalists' articles in the UK during the 1990s.From the first mention by Clark Johnsen regarding this latest article, the replies have diverted into talking about aluminium foil. No problem about that, people can talk about what they like - but there is one gem in the middle of Bill Kenny's article which people have missed (or could that be 'deliberately' missed !!!) which should have been exercising people's thinking for the past 20 years.
