I agree with Bob. Ask anyone who anxiously waited for the official classification of Portales Valley to be released, and you will find that with few exceptions, every one was shaking their heads in disbelief when the announcement was made. I seriously doubt that anyone spoke negatively about you for saying the classification should be something other than an ordinary H6. Rather, you were probably attacked for making derogatory remarks about scientist being too lazy to do their job right. To me, that shows a lack of understanding on YOUR part about how the system works.

Tom ,
I don't believe you were ever chided for questioning the need for reclassifying, I believe the problem stemmed from your derogatory remarks about those working (or not working, lazy, as you assert), on PV. AND as you can see now, work was being done, they were not sitting on their hands, doing nothing. Further, it seems to me as though they had a new type of class and wanted to be sure of their results.
That PV was not an ordinary H6 is not an opinion that was yours alone, and you were part of a vast majority. Instead of patting yourself on the back, why don't you apologize for your derisive insinuations about those who have put much time and effort into the study of PV.
