I definitely made a good run at slogging through but only slogged in until I was over my head which was pretty quick. The E.P.S.T.E.I.N. thing is a strange tangent... I don't know how to decode "backronym"... I also felt they were bending *way* over backwards to claim absolute neutrality... I could measure that as a "doth protest too much" I suppose. You probably have a lot more practice reading stuff like this. I feel blessed that *most* conspiracy-whackadoodle-doodle has grammatical and style hints (like listening to/watching Alex Jones froth) plastered all over it. This is obviously more refined/subtle than that. The lengthiness does seem to hint at trying to exhaust the reader with sheer volume. Do you have a more elaborate analysis of what you think they are up to? - Steve > > On 4/20/20 11:03 AM, Marcus Daniels wrote: >> With HIV there are people that can control the virus and have immunity for >> practical purposes.
