Wayne, you passed the test!! Well done.

Actually there was no test, but I was hoping you would explain the basis for 
some of your statements, and you did. Thank you for taking the time.

One factor I think cannot be ignored, and I have no hard evidence for this 
opinion, is the malpractice issue. There has been so much published about 
the cholesterol link to CHD that any doctor who went against the 
conventional wisdom is opening him or herself up to certain litigation if 
something should happen to one of their patients. That seems to me an 
extremely compelling reason even for a thinking person to go against their 
better judgement.
