I have nowhere avowed any germ warfare theory. Please do not put words in
my mouth and do try and be a more careful reader. Obviously you also failed

Dublin who proves indisputably that Molly is in fact 'spot off'.

Reason demands a little more effort than hearing only what we want to hear
and seeing only what we want to see.
