Boy, this is classic:
Definition: A scientist is someone who follows the scientific method. The scientific community is composed of all scientists.
Claim: The evidence for HIV is so overwhelming, anyone who claims HIV does not cause AIDS must not be following the scientific method.
Lemma: Therefore, someone who claims HIV does not cause AIDS is not a scientist.
Theorem: Therefore, all members of the scientific community agree HIV causes AIDS.
Corollary: Therefore, all ""debate"" over the HIV hypothesis occurs in ""non-scientific"" forums, ""outside the scientific community"".
Brilliant reasoning there, MastCell and Nightscream. I wonder how people 20 years from now will read this without laughing their ass off. 69.45.178.143  
""Duesberg doesn't conduct research on HIV. He never has. Neither does Kary Mullis. Neither does the Perth Group.""
""Russian biologists don't conduct research on Michurinism. They never have.""
""Evolutionists don't conduct research on Intelligent Design. They never have.""
""Einstein doesn't conduct research on the photoelectric effect or Brownian motion. He never has."" 69.45.178.143  
""In 1948, genetics was officially declared 'a bourgeois pseudoscience'; all geneticists were fired from work (some were also arrested), and all genetic research was discontinued."" (from Wikipedia aritlce Lysenkoism). 69.45.178.143  
'''''I THINK MAST CELL AND NIGHTSCREAM'S ""ARGUMENT"" OVER THE POV OR NON-POV NATURE OF THE WIKIPEDIA ARTICLE ""AIDS REAPPRAISAL"" IS INADEQUATE BECAUSE IT IS AS FOLLOWS (PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS CENTRAL TO THE POV-NON-POV DEBATE, NOT A DEBATE OF ""THE ISSUE"", MAST CELL):

Mast Cell and Nightscream are using this pathetic ""argument"" as a justification for pushing their POV. So, yes, this comment IS very definitely in reference to ""improving the article"". THANK YOU. 69.45.178.143  "
