Just point them to the article 'Educating Rida'.....I think it is on warmwell and farmtalking as well as Mark's own site!

Sue,
Please could you ask this poster why the Icelandic folks who eat scrapie
sheep are still healthy?
As we all now know the fellows of the Royal Society CAN be wrong!!!!!!!
- I will go and do that now Joyce, but it may be some time before I get a reply – if at all – since a lot of these posters only seem to use GU at their employer's expense, clearly preferring to set aside the weekend for more hedonistic pursuits!! Mind you if they do reply I will obviously have to keep referring back to you to sustain the debate :-)

Keep going Coshipi.
NB The BSE agent is not fully understood, and giving it the label of
prion is helpful, but not the whole story.
BSE was caused by feeding scrapie infected matter to cows, of that there
is little doubt. My great aunt resigned her job so that she could help
publicise this fact on behalf of the Royal Society (of which she is one
of the 14 female fellows) As one of the top experts in neuropathology in
the europe for many years, I am inclined to trust both her and her
colleagues research and information. "

As I have previously mentioned this site is often not for the faint-hearted, but despite the fact that many of the contributors to this thread are almost terminally "up themselves" they are nonetheless also academically considerably more well-equipped to discuss this matter than I am – which in all fairness wouldn't be difficult! Unsurprisingly perhaps most of these are also quite scathing of Mark's work, but he does have a couple of allies too. Well worth reading even if you don't feel brave enough to join in!
