Would I think of sausage when I see an ad for BoTox?
The name for the organism that causes botulism comes from the Latin word for sausage, (botulus) because it was first suspected in Napoleonic era German sausages.

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.
