Daniella is simply explaining that as far as the scientific process goes you all blow, and quite frankly I have to agree with her. With out scientifically based proof (some sort of test identifying palytoxin as your culprit) your all jumping the gun and pointing at a compound that probably has little to do with whats going on.

Yes Max experienced symptoms but there are hundreds of thousands of compounds in saltwater created by hundreds of thousands of different organisms, any one of these could be your culprit. Max could also have any number of physiological problems wrong with him in addition to the effects of this "mystery compound". So again, take from it what you will but with out definitive proof please stop pointing blindly at Palytoxin.

She makes a really good point;

There are scientific channels to ensure the "facts" we spew are in fact true, I'm surely preaching to the wrong choir on an internet forum that bases facts off opinion but if anyone takes anything from this post it's please do your research, blindly following others opinions can have grave consequences.

I have to agree with what you have to say. Well put.

I think the problem here is Daniella at times comes across too strong. Pushing her point to the point of being a bully. Daniella, I respect your opinions, and what you say does ring some valid points. I also know that you try to bring good and valuable information to this forum, thank you for this.

So lets keep this thread to the topic and not a bashing party. If the thread creator thinks this warrants going to see a doctor, then they should.

Well as for me and I'm sure a good portion of the people on the site not being bilingual it would be hard to be offended. "par levou francais" if so , maybe not so much..

You mean like if you didn't actually post that, it wouldn't actually be offensive? You posted that in your native tongue and it's way more offensive than anything she's tried to communicate...
