I'm not blaming the media at all. They were privy to someone on the inside who couldn't keep it in perspective. They intrinsically did what they do. I stand by my original post. One of the pricipal investigators, or someone on the team, got overly-exited at some esoteric data that only a few would experience a hormonal rush over. Sheldon Cooper and his ilk. For the rest of humanity, the great unwashed masses that encompases most of us, it's going to be a yawner. But I do give you kudos, Daniel, for forseeing this and calling it to our attention on more than one occassion. The only other explanation is that NASA was paid a visit by the Men In Black, who have clamped-down on the discovery and are keeping it from us unwashed because they feel we can't handle it. Let the conspiracy theories roll! Hey, it's winter. We need some indoor entertainment. C. On Thu, Nov 29, 2012 at 4:38 PM, daniel turner <outwest112@yahoo.com> wrote:
