Fair enough, but those interested in alt med are still in a better

chose not
to participate in that debate because I was not ready to do the research

rather than evidence and logic?
Choosing not to participate is far removed from taking a position in an
article.
Who said
anything about a monopoly? Or that they have any new
"powers"? Or that outsiders would not be able to participate?
You did.
