When your interpretations of your "references" or boldly inaccurate statements are challenged you can not respond in your own words in an intelligent fashion. You change the subject, hurl insults, or just plain ignore it like you have:

here on your latest "reference" which by the way I was in complete agreement with other than commenting on a few significant omissions to support some of the comments made.

here on the issue of Martian meteorite mediated microbe transfer

here on the issue of back contamination

here on your self contradictory use of panspermia theory

here on the evidence your manned mission scifi comments are just polain ignorant

and here on your strange idea of scientific credentials

and yes ignoring includes parroting previous posts in replies to those posts.
