    So your argument is that scientist can't possibly come up with an accurate outcome because they have never faced this scenario before, but at the same time scientists got the number spot on,THEN multiplied it by five just to scare an ex RAF man who doesn't scare easily because he has a degree in a science, with some statistics, but he is guessing.

    So here is a test for you.....

    Do you agree covid is real?
    Do you agree people have died due to covid?
    2 yes answers means you should be a little scared, even with your degree in a science. The only people who are not scared are the ones that are too stupid to know better, even if it's only a little bit.

    And being quoted as a reference,how do you know? And do they quote you positively or negatively,and how do you know? And when they quote you,is it in any subject to do with infectious diseases?
    Does a dissertation in change management qualify you to second guess experts in infectious diseases?

    When you said you were a covidiot,you got three too many letters in there
    Scared of what ?

    Hate to have you beside me on the hill at pittodrie after the match

    I think you've misunderstood.

    What's any hill at Pittodrie got to do with the discussion?

    And the governments and pubic bought the scaremongering. Meanwhile the same scientists are raking it in through worldwide sales of vaccines that they developed and licensed. Did someone not predict twelve months ago that we'd be here at this point? Forced vaccines and vaccine passports - but then I'm just a Covidiot so what do I know?

    I'm not sure I have many friends on here. One in particular that RRoS named, who's been very quiet (but that could be because I have him 'on ignore') really doesn't like me even though I have no idea who he is and we've never met. Can't think why he dislikes me so much and I genuinely hope he's OK and that RRoS hasn't driven him to an asylum or worse.
    I'm sure he's tikety boo.

    I like you, Mr sensible is coming round😉 and half loaf really used to like you.

    Anyway that's at least 3, what's no to like about someone whose as downright cantankerous (spelling nae idea) as me padantic about facts, gloomy about DFC and almost hates dabs as much as me......it's all good.

    And Bcram likes ahh ****....it's just his way.😁

    'Half Loaf' hates my guts. Something about being trapped and denied freedom of expression. He's a **** anyway.

    Mr. S knew all along that I was right and has grown to accept it

    I like BCram, nice guy.

    Pretty sure you owe me a pint and so does Valleyboy.

    Cantankerous

    Don't want to turn this conversation but I've always said academic qualifications mean nothing; common sense, practical skills, ability to communicate and a huge slice or two of luck are all you need to get on.

    Those that don't have these things believe everything the government tells them or they read in a paper

    Aye I suppose, communication a big thing, I do enjoy listening to clever folk, specialists in their subject even if I dinnae particular like the subject or dinnae like the person.

    Peter Allis, Bill McLaren, Brough Scott...experts with a canny way about them.

    Thon boy that's aye on about the universe an that....cox....nae idea what he's on about, blows my mind a bit, but like hearing it.

    I like a bit of classical FM driving to the golf, not a fricking Scooby what they are talking about but I like it.

    David Attenborough another.

    I cannae play chess to save my life, no spontanious enough for me, too much forward thinking but I love watching videos of folk explaining it.🙄

    Nae idea why.
