It's called having a strong point, you should try it yourself some times. Then you can feel superior too.

I was agreeing with your point. Having a hyper-inflated sense of superiority would lead to no research, as in we're so superior we don't need no steenkin research.

Annnnndddd that completes our history of the decline and fall of the American auto industry.


and don't forget the whole of British Industry.

Sorry, I failed to see the relevance to the discussion. The project description used the word 'archaic', so it wouldn't imo suggest the ban is due to hubris, but rather some perceived dangers.

Ah, I went back and read that whole, tortuous thread, and you are right.
You are talking about a specific area of research being banned. Serves me right for working and not paying enough attention to the thread :-D
