I do see where you are coming from. I think that evidence and proof are important in both sides of the claim. Yes, the burden of proof lies in the claiment. I agree there completely. I would advice you that we are coming to a time when dna testing will take care of all such answers. We're not there yet, but doesn't mean we won't be soon. In the meantime. What you have backwards is the need to ridicule, as if, because consistant proof does not exist, it is then somehow a joke. Something to be belittled and make into a sport for your ridicule. All it seems to me that does is work to undermine any efforts this person (or anyone else) could ever make to claim it's legitimacy. It is easy to hurt people. It is much more difficult to give people room to express their views, even when they do not align with ours. I am glad you can express your beliefs here, as can I and all others. Unless you actually know something that you can tell us, then all the weight of proof falls on the owner, but that doesn't give you the right to make such blatent attempts to undermine this individual or perhaps even to ridicule the whole process of introducing a new morph. Is there something here more than meets the eye?
I hope you have only the best intentions at heart. I am not sure your answer to my posted questions actuually answers the mean-spirited way you have gone about this, which is what I was asking about. I know many researchers. I have read numerous papers which refute the findings of others, and they never resort to ugly and hurtful tactics. I would recommend that only facts from both sides of the agrument are really necessary. Ugliness is unproductive for everyone.ONLY MHO.
