Are you saying that the park service and student volunteers constitute "good science?"
BTW, Virgil, Rembrandt sold paintings. By your lights, you would discount any opinions he had on the subject because, it appears that you cannot understand how one can separate commercial interests from artistic interests. In effect, what you say is very insulting an impugns my honesty. I am very hurt that you imply that I cannot be honest bcause I do not hold the current orthodox view. Perhaps I did not have the advantage of graduating from a college known for its agricultural programs and perhaps I did not attend a school for park rangers, but having attended a bona fide art school should carry some weight in a discussion about art.
Anyway, I am very insulted and feel put upon by your snide innuendo that I am a dishonest person. This affects all of my sensitivities and I feel further, that it is a slap at the school I attended and at those workers there who invented acrylics.
