I'm not. But if I was an employee or contractor paid to do this job or even an employee volunteering to do this ---- why should you believe me? At Huffington-Post, only Huff-Po knows my IP Address. No one else can find my IP address and use it to try to learn more about me. And on sites of those who disagree with me, I just have to make sure to use an IP address that goes back to a residential DSL or Cable Account.
The above is just a preamble to what's below --- which is my reply to questions asked of me in comments at Huff-Po in the last 24 hours.
Here are our featured players.
From Andrew Wakefield Banned: British Doctor Behind MMR Vaccine Scare Struck Off Register
Do you work for a hospital, a medical corporation or a related company?
and from Monsanto's Poison Pills for Haiti
Do you work for Monsanto ?
My response to both
Ahhh.. the old shill gambit. How should I answer? I know, I'll list the usual answers and let true (not pseudo) randomness determine the answer du jour.
So I go off to www.random
It doesn't matter who I work or even if anyone pays me. I don't claim any credentialed or employment expertise in my comments, so it shouldn't make any difference. Contrast that to blogger Dr. Mark Crislip, an Infectious Disease Specialist who sometimes relies on his credentials and feels bad every time he sees refreshments paid for by Big Pharma which he has to pass by to keep to his record of never accepting anything from Big Pharma except a fleet enema.
Please try again in two weeks and perhaps atmospheric noise will let me give you an answer more to your liking.
Your ob't servant

Someone has gone one step further in my case with sincere advice to reconsider my job at Monsanto!
ReplyDeleteHere is what the person says -
"I also am concerned for you. I know it's a tough job market in the U.S. now, but please consider your future and how you want to feel about what you do. Monsanto has a lot of money, and I'm sure their benefits are very good, but.."
And I'm actually just a plant biologist at a public University which pays me rather poorly. The benefits are pretty decent though.
