I was really surprised and sad to read this. I must be hanging out in different places because I've never read a bad word said about you. You could always disable comments if you were concerned about negative reaction – although I had always got the impression that you were fairly immune to such things. I can't believe that you've not come under some pretty intense intense fire from the BPS artillery.
It is saddening but there are people in the ME 'advocacy' community who say obscene things about anyone who does not like their pet idea. Some of the xmrv brigade could be pretty unpleasant and there are others hurling insults on other sites as I write, I suspect. In contrast I have never had any abuse from the BPS crowd, except to the extent that I am presumably included in the anonymous category of 'climate change deniers' or 'borderline psychopaths'. I am completely immune to any of this but David Colquhoun may have felt his time was wasted on the sort of people who I have had insults from.
