is no better than saying that you aren't interested in the facts, you just want to believe what you believe. Whatever.
I was only offering my personal beliefs, based on my experience, as is true with almost everything I post here. I meant no offense. I just threw in the Twain quote because I thought it (the quote, not me) was clever. Of course, YMMV.
Peace!
