I think for a unbiased reader it shows very clear, that in this thread everything possible is used to indirectly attack the OP.

I shure hope for the same unbiased support for the other planes that hopefully will be discussed.

Nothing to do with attacking the OP, everything to do with backing up the opposed oppinions, what this proves is that nobody who disagrees with the OP is doing it for simple emotional reasons, there are plenty of sources of information to back it up, it's up to the OP to prove without doubt his claims, every claim he has made has had a very valid counter argument, one could argue that someone dedicating so much attention to claims such as the OP's is probably the one doing it for emotional reasons.
