Reisner was from a more 'sophisticated' era. Would you say that Vyse's methodology was less questionable, more questionable, or equally questionable? Are you saying Vyse should be given some sort of asylum and was immune from the methodology of the day?

"WE" don't care how RB has objected to what how many times. Irrelevant.
"ad nauseum" (a popular cliché these days) applies to the alt statements and not the MS who repeat the same statements over and over? Our repeated questions make you nauseated, how do you think we feel about your answers?
