"Perhaps" is the operative word and thus  leaves room for differing 
views or opinions and not an absolute. To call someone who expresses an 
opinion an "idiot" makes one wonder just who is the idiot here.
Disagree if you must; Dr. Wills left the door open; but a man's opinion 
is just that and needs not be put down for expressing it. Free exchange 
of information and views makes us all the better for such.
That's my opinion, Mike, and no more.
Don
