Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

This might have something to do with earth Hour. Not sure about the capitalized "H" in hospital.

I didn't at all understand it but I figured I was just tired. After about 13 hours of sleep, I still don't get it!
