Hi Charles, it's Dave. The people who have posted are certainly not sock-puppets of mine; a few have offered contact details to verify their identities to +prove+ they are not sock-puppets.

I'm really tired with all this and very keen to find a compromise. I offered what I thought was a reasonable compromise tonight and Felix immediately deleted it (including the enhanced section on global warming that you wrote and I much preferred). 

Felix and I are clearly going to keep alternating edits, me putting them in, him cutting, me putting them back, etc etc, which seems like a real waste of time. That isn't good for wiki, and it's frankly very tedious.

If you could check in to the discussion and just adjudicate on (a) the public domain picture I keep posting, and (b) the sections on nuclear disarmament, global warming and the line and the environment, it would really save a lot of time. If you decide against me I will totally abide by that; if you decide against felix, I hope he will too. - Dave
