That way, while we may not all agree with the reference work in question, we're still all on the same page -- in the same book, no less -- regarding where such chemical compounds should be placed within this site?
Not to jump on a dead horse,but i forgot to mention this,why should there be a modest compromise....In a case where i was shown to be clearly wrong,regardless of my view there would be no compromise by the autrhrioty of the group.I have not seen a valid disagreement point,drugs are spoke about on the medication group,as alternative herbs,nutrients and such on alternative.
All it seems to me is if the mistake,which i agree seems to be mostly in my view only but still i question if the or a mistake is made by the powers that be,than instead of that mistake being corrected,we rather create some compromise?
Lets just put it back on the medication group where it belongs.Im concerend at how fast this was re directed.Sometimes i feel there is a red button on re directs,and yess even blocks,and i feel its pressed quite quickly too.
I dont even understnad why its taking so long for something to be finalized here when the re direct took only moments.
I mean in the case someone in authrioty **could** be wrong,is this how long it takes before anyone simply acnowledges it.
