Quote:Now since I cannot find a single critical evaluation of this article, nor did the teacher supply one I find hsi arguement to be nothing more than an "I am the teacher you will do as I say" attitude.
Next time, ask on this forum and cite our replies. Then if your "Professor" feels your statements are insufficiently supported he can come on here and argue against it. That would be fun to watch.
The strength of an arguement is assessed by what is said, not by who says it. Peer review is simply a way of saving fellows like your professor from having to actually judge an arguement for themselves. This is not a bad thing, since we cannot all be specialists, but a lack of peer review does not indicate a weak arguement.

A Spartan, being asked a question, answered "No." And when the questioner said, "You lie," the Spartan said, "You see, then, that it is stupid of you to ask questions to which you already know the answer!"
