Sorry I missed your Q the first time around . Must have been the glazing over my eyes were getting from Dr. Allen's replys . It was a good question that got a rather lame non-response from him . I can assure Dr. Scott that the GITMO detainees are getting MUCH better treatment than what takes place in a typical US prison where the outrage against human rights abuses is better directed against.

Thanks for going back and giving an opinion. I didn't want to turn on too high guns and have them drop me. Dr. Allen is just one of many who hope to capitalize on the torture cry, and really hasn't done his homework on the cases.

I would have liked to see you, Elliot and Steve toss a question his way....

I didn't know that you and "Loral O" are one and the same. Cool. I had noticed the question. It was the only hardball question in the entire interview, and Dr. Allen sidstepped it.

As for me questioning him, the words that I would have used in the question would have gotten me tossed for sure. I'm glad that a more level-headed person like you asked the question without losing your cool.
