To quote: "As I've said here and elsewhere, my only dog in this fight is making sure that people can get the information to make informed decisions. I'm not a fan of organisations who say "trust us, we have the data, we've interpreted it, no need for you to worry your pretty little heads over what it actually says, just listen to what we say and repeat our take on it to all your friends." A responsible organisation will give you the source material so that you can make your own decisions."
When you are sending out a call to arms RE: anything, include more than just your opinions. Give facts, sources of facts, or other routes to informaion so that those you wish to convince can decide for themselves. We are not sheep.
