[Geo4All] Please accept my sincere apologies

Suchith,
In a world that is deep into unsustainable territory, oriented to profit and not prosperity, except for a few, you raise a most critical issue that needs to be of considerable priority. 
To secure this unparalleled concentration of wealth, tremendous manipulation of media must occur. Your concerns are highly appropriate. 
They truly go to the heart of the matter regarding access to science, unbiased and free of ulterior intent other than truth.
I deeply appreciate your raising these concerns. Thank you for raising these issues! They need to be addressed if there is to be a future for our children. We are unsustainable as is, and rapidly accelerating more deeply into unsustainable territory. 
Something must change. Science is key. 
Your colleague in this effort for the sacredness of open science,-Patrick

 <!--#yiv8038868254 P {margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;}-->Dear colleagues,

I want to end this open discussion with me publicly  apologising for any unintended hurt I caused to anyone as I got carried away because the issue of Openness in Science is important to me. I have great respect for ICA and all colleagues.  
Let me make it very clear that the issues around pseudoscience, weak science and commercially-sponsored science etc are an entirely different issue. It is a wider global problem. It has nothing to do with ICA or anyone.
Please accept my sincere apologies . I am very sorry. Please forgive me.

This is my last email on this topic. Thank you.
Best wishes,
Suchith
