>From your email it would appear that the 'battle lines' are already drawn.  
Anyone submitting 'essays' may get them published and then Roberta Bragg's 
response to those essays is published.  Will the parties submitting the 
essays then be provided guaranteed space to rebut Roberta's responses?  In a 
truely open forum that would be allowed.

Perhaps some good advice for you would be:
1)  Learn how to program and how computers work (this does not include VBA 
scripts in an application, although script kiddies do like some of these).
2)  Practice, research, test, keep your mind open.  Implement truely 
scientific testing methodologies with no restrictions on what is tested or 
how.
3)  Truthfully report what you learn with no preconceived notions or 
prejudices.

Is that not what true journalistic integrity is about?
