- Russell, you are very knowledgeable of the history of vivisection
- and recent biomedical research employing laboratory animals. Could
- you cite one animal research project from the past and preface your
- comments about the research with something along the lines of "Given
- my non-omniscient understanding of this research, and my knowledge and
- examination of this case, this stands as an example where I probably
- would have given the go-ahead for sacrificing these laboratory animals..."
-
- You will no doubt be surprised at the extent to which your readers will
- not use your statement to discredit or dishonor you.
