Laypeople trump experts

Actually, I will just add this. A while ago, when fls said she wasn't going to respond to my comments, I indicated that I wouldn't respond to hers either if she didn't wish me to. She indicated then that she didn't mind if I did. Since then she has sometimes responded to my comments, sometimes ignored them and sometimes posted what were in effect responses but without addressing or quoting me directly. But if she would rather we didn't respond to each other's comments, she has only to say the word.
