Notice the Commenter didn't just suppose Lisberger had "saved lives" but he actively minimized the creatures he knew were being hurt, saying that the unproven lives being "saved" "are more important than the monkeys."<BR/><BR/>It's scary to see how quickly and unthinkingly people will cede their power of thought to anybody they perceive as an authority, no matter how flimsy the evidence.Make Lisberger Accountablenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25037502.post-72531065575984320482009-04-07T01:08:00.000-07:002009-04-07T01:08:00.000-07:00Hey idiot, he hasn't saved any lives.

He hooks moneys with steel cages onto the ceiling of a chair, hooks them up to goggles also embedded, then watchs how their eyes track "targets." <BR/><BR/>Why do you pro-animal kill people never learn how to read? You just spew kind of asinine cliches.MMnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25037502.post-79764421777420273002009-04-07T00:26:00.000-07:002009-04-07T00:26:00.000-07:00How about, you praise him for all the lives he's p...How about, you praise him for all the lives he's probably saved, which are more important than the monkeys.<BR/><BR/>Well, that's what normal people do anyway.
