    They were asked these questions by journalists and they answered. Don’t blame scientists for idiot media people.

      Scientists can be absolutely the biggest idiots. I worked maintenance in a laboratory and sometimes I was impressed somebody who can genotype plankton could also tie their own shoes.

        Sure, I never claimed the opposite :) I just think in this case, the one to blame is whoever came up with the idea for this article, not the people who were asked questions.
