Just because the evidence hasn't been posted in the last few days, that
doesn't mean it's absent. A few days' newsfeed is not of any particular
statistical significance.

As I said, in my opinion if you want to keep attacking Jacob's C skills,

I don't know where you got that idea. Why would I attack his skills? What I
attack is his errors and his unreliable assumptions.

then the onus is on you to be able to support your attacks with evidence

I do. The fact that you haven't seen such evidence merely suggests that you
haven't been here very long and haven't bothered to read the archives. So
- let me give you a few random examples, to save you the trouble of
finding one for yourself. Now please understand that I have *other stuff*
to do. I don't mind backing up my statements, but I'm not going to spend
the rest of the day pulling out dozens of examples. If you want more than
I've given here, find them yourself. They are certainly there to find.

I have to say that I'm not satisfied with the views I've read from
people defending the status quo.

Then change the status quo, by posting positive articles.

I don't think this is healthy, and I don't think this is a group I want
to devote time and energy to contributing to in these circumstances.

Your choice. But if you don't like what you see and are not prepared to
work towards changing it, don't be surprised if you continue not to like
it.
