It does seem to, but does that not also imply a slight beliefe that goes along with using that statement. Unless he is being sarcastic like "for all we know the Earth is a rocket ship"
if his sentence was crystal clear, then there would be no debate.
It's hardly either my or Kendrick's problem that some of the REers on this site seem to have a problem with understanding the English language. The intent of the statement was crystal-clear. If you or Boatswainsmate don't grasp it, maybe give www.rif.org a shot.
It's hardly my problem if you or Kendrick struggle with expressing clearly what's in your mind. Or whit the dubious idea of FET, which is clearly a very lame theory.
I'm not surprised by the tone of you message, half patronizing, half despizing which is so common with you.
And I'm not surprised that in this debate, if there's a misunderstanding, it is never your fault.

Back to the debate: no one has an idea of how the FE was formed?
No brilliant zetetic observation which might lead to an idea?
Oh, you don't know? Ok, you can resume considering us as idiots.
