Forgive me if I'm wrong, but it sounds like you're trying to cast doubt on the book. The author is former DC bureau chief of Booth Newspapers and an environment-beat newspaper reporter, formerly with The Grand Rapids Press and The Cincinnati Enquirer. And as I said, the book has 296 footnotes, and frankly, is a slam dunk. It's rare that I see anything this solid. I actually bought ten copies and am sending them to people with influence. I wouldn't do that for something that I didn't think has tons of merit.
